It's not an executable program. Try 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'.

HI All,

why do I get the below,

[root at status1 ~]# /proc/cpuinfo
-bash: /proc/cpuinfo: Permission denied

Cheers.

Hi All,

tnx. I was following this page,

http://www.linuxforum.com/linux-filesystem/proc.html

BTW, why doesn't this file exists,

[root at status1 ~]# cat /usr/bin/procinfo
cat: /usr/bin/procinfo: No such file or directory

Cheers, again.

Mark Sargent.
