Finding the PID the Mac Way
Authored by: Wayne_S on Aug 19, '03 04:57:23PM

You could always fire up the Process Viewer (which I always keep in the Dock right next to the Terminal icon) and have it filter for processes owned by root if there are too many. The name sort usually works fine for me. Highlight the line listing inetd and the PID will be displayed in the bottom of the window. Not as UNIXy, but usually faster than scanning through terminal text.
