        You have not explained what you want to do, is this for a 
production system is this just for testing? Here are some tools that I 
know of.

        If you want something that will just trace system calls then you 
have, strace under Linux, ktrace and truss under FreeBSD and truss under 
Solaris.

        There is a tool for Linux which give you more analysis power 
called LTT:

Take care
