NAME
rpc.rstatd —
kernel statistics server
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/rpc.rstatd [INTERFACE]... |
DESCRIPTION
rpc.rstatd is a RPC daemon which collects
performance statistics from kernel on serving machine. This implementation
for the Linux Operating System also returns the
number of users logged in on the remote machine if the information is
available.
It also allows to specify which network interfaces to include in the packet count. If no interface names are specified packets from all interfaces besides the loopback interface are added up.
The statistics are queried using
rup(1) ,
perfmeter(1) , etc. The
rpc.rstatd daemon is normally invoked by
inetd(8).
rpc.rstatd uses an RPC protocol defined in
/usr/include/rpcsvc/rstat.x.
