(ignoring the major aclocal/autoconf/automake-fu)
let me know the details of the autoconf et al changes and i'll be happy to
update it OR are the changes simply because of a unique build environment?
No, this was purely a case of local funkiness. I only brought it up
because it might help to know that issue exists in case someone asks on the
general list. And also because it makes me look like a total chimp.
I'm not sure where this metric should come from, honestly. libdnet
seems like it would know about the MTU on a wide variety of
interfaces, and specifically about the one that gmond is
listening/broadcasting on. Anyone have any ideas on how to expose
that as the MTU metric?
the linux.c find_mtu() function should work for you on solaris as well
since it just make calls to the libdnet library. have you tried that?
Just did. *ding!* And it works (well, 1500 *is* correct, but not an
unusual value for my Netra to be reporting ... ).
that is my bad! sorry. on linux "lo" is the last interface so i just
ass_med (notice there is no U because i'm the only ass here). i'll code
it up now .. it's easy enough.
Hmmm. Still not working when I remove the mcast_if config directive.
Works great when I pop it back in though.
For some reason, it's seeing loopback as multicast_enabled.
Aha, good thing there's a dnet flag for loopback. I just tested this and
it works real good.
Try this (forgive word wrap, if applicable):
