I would recommend looking for the full path, in case (like me) you have
other things with the string "httpd " in the name.

for i in `ps -afe | grep /usr/sbin/httpd | grep -v grep | awk '{print
$2} '`
do
COUNT=$((COUNT+1))
done
echo $COUNT

Steve, Brian and Michael.
Thank you all for your responses. I had tried the wc -l
option
and couldn 't get it to work. Figured it was because it was for files.
It
was just because I tried it in every way but the correct way.
Michael
You gave me just what I was looking for. A little knowledge
of
the for loop. Was hoping for a loop that would actually count the
lines
and not the words though. But your awk command helped me there. I
will
continue hunting for an answer to my "learning question " where I am
just
trying to find out how to count whole lines in a shell script
variable. with a loop internally to the script without the wc
command.
Thanks
Steve
