Which of course is a lot to type :) 


To the OP: you might want to set up a shell alias for this command, such
as 

alias svrstat="ps ax | egrep '/apache2|/mysql|/postfix'"

To make it permanent, put it into your .bashrc file.


Alternatively, create your own little shell script and stick it
into /usr/local/bin. (Don't forget to make it executable.) You can
either just enter the ps expression from above, but you can also make it
arbitrarily complex
