sorry that i didn't reply to this earlier. the isp that i'm using right now (in se asia) went south for the last week or so. i just got back on-line. i'm returning to the united states tomorrow.
as far as the host_dmax code... i would recommend adding the code to CVS and having the developers test it before we release it. you write great code but we need to see if it compiles and behaves on all the oses we support. the host dmax feature will be a nice addition... if we can quickly try it out.. we can add it to the 2.5.6 release... otherwise it will be part of 2.5.7. it'll take me a few days to get settled when i return to the states. once i get back ... i'll have a lot to more to talk about. -matt On Fri, 2004-01-16 at 07:50, Federico Sacerdoti wrote: > Matt et al, > I have some small changes that enable a "host_dmax" configure option > for gmond.
