] How would I change the password for the client-ID on a freebsd box where
] DCC was built from ports?
] How would I go about doing this?
It would be easiest to
1. copy the /var/dcc/ids from your existing DCC servers to your
new DCC servers. Ensure that /var/dcc/ids is identical on all
of your servers. (or /etc/dcc/ids or wherever you put the DCC
home directory)
2. create a new DNS name like dcc.example.com with the IP addresses of
all 4 of your DCC servers.
3. Run this command on each DCC client:
cdcc "add dcc.example.com RTT-1000 ms 32768 secret"
were 32768 is a client ID with password SECRET in /var/dcc/ids on all
of your servers.
Then your DCC clients will load balance themselves among your servers.
Each client will prefer the currently nearest/fastest server.
Each clients monitors the round trip time (RTT) to all know servers.
