Well, yes, and I'm locking the pages needed by the capture application
so it's not an awful problem. But the transfering process would be
more or less continuous, so the appropriate daemon would get to be
used all the time actually, and the less it uses resources the better.

That sounds like a good idea. The only drawback is parsing filenames...
Does rcp require other services than rsh in inetd.conf ?


Thanks for the advice,


Tnx
