I am an enggineering student working on a project distributed systems monitoring and management. I want to ask u that how can i access /proc files from remote machine? suppose i want to watch /proc/cpuinfo of machine A from macine B. Then how can i do it? Using this i want to monitor and manage the network from a central location eliminating the need for me (administrator) to login at each client machine to see it's status. Storing the result in buffer is one way as i can see. but the work will become tedious. Another way suggested to me is to use SSH. Setup password-less authentication for SSH and then acces /proc of the other machines. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
