/*-------------------------------------------------------------- NetLoadD - Network Load Deamon Read The David Cutting (dcutting@purplepixie.org) L I C E N C E --------------------------------------------------------------*/ Frequently Asked Questions 1. Can NetLoadD Monitor Multiple Interfaces? Yes, you can simply run multiple instantiations of netloadd for the various interfaces eg: $ netloadd +file ppp0 & $ netloadd +file eth0 & 2. Can I direct the +file output elsewhere? As of version 1.5.1, no. The filewrite function in netloadd.cpp is a bit of a bodge and version 2.0 will use the netloadd_analysis engine for all analysis on the held list of transfers. This will allow various different files. Until then: DO NOT RUN MULTIPLE COPIES on the same DEVICE with +file 3. Can I change the default settings? Yes - at compile time to actually set default (see the INSTALL document) or by utilising command line switches with optional configuration files. See the CONFIG howto for more information on config files or the USAGE document for a full description of command-line switches. 4. Can NetLoadD output to a database? Yes - MySQL. Versions 1.4 and later have fairly stable MySQL support optionally compiled in (by default it is). Please see the MYSQL document for more information on using netloadd with MySQL. 5. Can I alter the delay time for netloadd? Yes - use the d flag on the command line or in the [main] section of your config file with a non-whitespaced integer parameter of seconds eg: $ netloadd d60 eth0 Would start netloadd with a delay of 60 seconds.
