In `top`, other user’s names becomes `nobody` #275

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open top command in junest
  2. Check the USER column of the output. Other user’s names are shown as nobody

Is it possible to show the actual user names instead of nobody?

Yes, you are right. I am not sure why that happens. This happen with ps command too. Junest updates /etc/passwd file so I thought these programs use that file to get the username. We may need to update some other files.

If you have time to investigate this, please let me know, thanks.

I looked a little bit into it and this could be the underlying issue (kernel namespace limitation)
