CHANGES to rpc.rstatd
1. rpc.rstatd now correctly reports time and uptime
HOW TO INSTALL rpc.rstatd
1. Unpack the distribution file rstatd_patched.tar.gz
2. Edit Makefile for appropriate destination directory /sbin or /etc
(rename or copy any existing rpc.rstatd or rstatd - just in case)
3. Kill any running rpc.rstatd or rstatd daemon
> kill -9 your_pid
4. make install (will fail if you miss 3 above)
This installs three files:
/usr/include/rstat.h
/usr/lib/librpcsrv.a
/sbin/rpc.rstatd or /etc/rpc.rstatd
5. run the new daemon
> /sbin/rpc.rstatd &
or
> /etc/rpc.rstatd & (Don't forget the &)
5. Add rpc.rstatd to the list of net daemons started AFTER rpc.portmap
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO FORGET THE "&" OR YOU WILL HANG LINUX
AT BOOT TIME ......You do have a boot floppy don't you :-)
