The following article provides additional information on configuring the
Ganglia development branch (trunk) to collect sFlow:
http://blog.sflow.com/2010/10/ganglia.html
Installing and configuring Host sFlow agents to send sFlow from Linux and
Windows platforms is described in the articles:
http://blog.sflow.com/2010/10/installing-host-sflow-on-linux-server.html
http://blog.sflow.com/2010/10/installing-host-sflow-on-windows-server.html
sFlow is sent from the Host sFlow agents to the Ganglia gmond collector as
unicast UDP messages to port 6343. You need to make sure that each Host
sFlow agent is configured to send to the IP address of the server that gmond
is installed on (the configuration details are in the articles above). If
you are still having problems then check that there are no firewalls
blocking the traffic. The IP tables filters on the the collector and agents
and well as any intermediate firewalls must be configured allow UDP port
6343 traffic to pass.
You can confirm that sFlow is being received at the gmond server by running
the following tcpdump command:
tcpdump udp port 6343
Please let me know if you have any difficulties.

What happens now with your Lotus Notes apps - do you make another costly
upgrade, or settle for being marooned without product support? Time to move
off Lotus Notes and onto the cloud with Force.com, apps are easier to build,
use, and manage than apps on traditional platforms. Sign up for the Lotus
Notes Migration Kit to learn more. http://p.sf.net/sfu/salesforce-d2d
