Hi,
My company has been using Linux for about 10 years and started out using RedHat/Fedora. To check stats on Linux clusters we have used remote procedure calls (rpc.rstatd and friends, eg rup). These utilities have always been available in RedHat type distributions, but not in Suse. What is the reason for this? Are there any good alternatives? What we need is to be able to check number of users, load average etc without logging in to each of the computers, eg using a script to collect this information from many computers and present to the user.
I had posted earlier that I use rwhod for a similar purpose, but rstatd is on our SLES boxes - root@plemlp01:~> cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (i586) VERSION = 9 root@plemlp01:~> rpm -qf `which rup` rstatd-3.07-178.1 Even if it doesn't ship with opensuse, one could probably grab the source rpm and build it as needed.
