rehsack,
As I indicated elsewhere in this thread, that patch didn't work for me. I would be willing to work with you offline to try and resolve the issue (I was able to get it to compile myself after basically rewriting the guts to use getprocs64). I have been in touch with the author of the AIX nmon utility and have been informed that yes, to do what I want - requires reading kernel memory with escalated permissions. I will message you my email for further correspondence.
