FILES OPENED BY A PROCESS

This is supported on Sun Solaris, not too sure about other Unix flavours.

I badly wanted to find out all the files opened by a process, and that is when I found pfiles.

Usage :
/usr/proc/bin/pfiles <pid>

Where pid is the process-id of the process.

It lists the inode numbers of all the files, opened by that process.
