Posix starts from '1' (usually for init), but never heard it limited to 65535 --- Linux allows 32bits (I set it to 99,999) to keep it to 5 digits and uses /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max to adjust it. Some systems wrapped too soon and it as confusing so they allowed for more pids. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
