- Hi I'm crossposting to some sys groups, once, to find out which systems
- do _not_ have rpc.rstatd
-
- I have written a public domain version of rpc.rstatd, which I will
- gladly send to anyone who needs it. I will post it to alt.sources a
- while later.
-
- What is rstatd? From the man page:
- rstatd, rpc.rstatd - kernel statistics server
-
- rstatd is a server which returns performance statistics
- obtained from the kernel. These statistics are graphically
- displayed by perfmeter(1), xload, etc... The rstatd daemon is
- normally invoked by inetd(8C).
-
- Part of the program reads the kernel, and is therefore highly
- system-dependent, so I would not expect my code to compile right away
- on any other systems, without porting.
-
- So...
-
- 1. Does your system have rstatd? (In /usr/etc or /etc, possibly
- rpc.rstatd or rstatd.)
-
- 2. Does your system have the rpc library? (In /lib or/usr/lib,
- possibly libsun.a, librpc.a, or in libc.a Try:
-
- nm LIB | egrep 'xdr|clnt|svc'
-
- where LIB is the library you are checking.
-
- 3. What is the manufacturer and name of your operating system and
- computer?
-
- 4. Would you like to receive my sources to rpc.rstatd?
-
- Followup-to e-mail.
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- Brian
