Thanks for the reply.  Did you get any response from the pmacct
developers acknowledging the bug?

FWIW it does work.

I now have socat extending the pmacctd socket across the
network so I can run pmacctd and aggregate statistics
in memory on a lightweight OpenBSD box
and then run pmacct and rrdtool (and postgresql and apache
and such) on a Linux box to periodically collect and
display the data.  I'm excited.  I'll see about posting
the socat stuff once I get it cleaned up.

What's the feel here for where pmacct is going? Is
there an active community and developers?  Will pmacct
continue to be used and grow or will it fade into
obscurity?

Thanks.
