How do I get the ID of a remote under QNX 6?

Under QNX 4.2, we used to be able to get the process ID by calling
qnx_name_attach(). Now under QNX 6, the similar call “name_open()” only
returns a channel id. That is fine for most communication needs. However, I
still need the id of a remote process sometimes. As an example, I need the
process id in order send a kill signal, etc.

So is there a way to get the remote process id?

thanks
