Писано каким-то китайцем в далеком 1992 году.

    sprintf(buf, "ps -aux | grep  %s > ps.tab", tran_path);
    system(buf);

    input_stream = fopen("ps.tab", "r");

    while ((fgets(line, n, input_stream)) != NULL) {
        len = strlen(line);
        line[len - 1] = '\0';

        if (os_strstr(line, master_path) != NULL) {
            /* found a line with master */
            fclose(input_stream);
            system("rm -f ps.tab>>/dev/null");
            return (1);
        }
    }

    fclose(input_stream);
    system("rm -f ps.tab>>/dev/null");
    return (0);
