Alvaro,
Thanks for the update and the updated code! Just to clairify, when I
say I will be using it, I mean for myself.....just to provide a way to
easily retrieve documents or files that I need.
Plus I just enjoy new toys to play with.
This week I got to format a server and install nGenius and set up nearly
180 routers on the thing......lots of fun!! Will probably spend this
weekend reading all the documentation I can get my hands on so that I
can set up reports on the data....other than the canned reports. So far
at the new job I've gotten to play with:
Cisco AP 350's and 1200's.....upgrading them from VxWorks to first one
then a second version of the IOS.
Working with Cisco Unity VOIP stuff to troubleshoot phone
issue.....Cisco's VOIP is neat!
Setting up a linux server to run FlowScan on....successfully I might
add; personal triumph!
Setting up a W2K server and installing nGenius and setting up the probes
and routers on the thing.
and lots of other stuff that is your standard day to day
troubleshooting, putting out fire variety.
I think I must have adult A.D.D. or something......I LOVE having all
this stuff to play with......I don't think I could ever do a repetitive job.
I'm still planning to write up a quick easy manner in which to install
and set up FlowScan for everyone. When I write it up, it will be
written for relative newbies....as I am......so that someone that has
just a little experience will be able to get things up and running.
Something that's always made life difficult for me at my stage in the
linux world is that a LOT of how to's are made with an assumption of a
level of expertise that I have not yet attained and I want to write up
something that a newbie can use.......those who are more adept can just
skip over the things that they already know like the back of their hand.
Is there anyone else here who has written up a howto for the linux
community??? I would like to contact the people whose information I
used......about three different documents......and get their permission
to scavenge from their documents for inclusion into mine. All that I
am actually doing is putting things in my own words, adding in stuff
where there were mistakes, and taking useful information from three
different sources. But I don't want anyone pissed at me for using their
work in my document.

When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible,
he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he
is very probably wrong.
Arthur C. Clarke, Profiles of the Future, 1962
