Bascically what you do with this command is to check the active
connections to one server.
Thus, if a client never spoke to that server or only a long time ago (I
don't know the timeout), you will not get it.
So if you want to get all clients, you need to get a set of servers and
be sure that each client talks reguarly to least one of them and then
combine the results.
Thus, the only way to make it usable for everyone without any user
configuration would be to get all servers with "vos listaddrs" and do
the rxdebug-thing with all of them and then boil down the lists. It's
not very efficient, but I guess it should work everywhere out of the box.

I've written a script which I want to collect version information on all

the command:
/usr/afs/bin/rxdebug $vldb -all
gets them all. From the email yesterday, it sounded like I might have to
run this against some other boxes? Could you clarify that for me please?
The script is below for anyone who wants it.
Cheers,

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Socket;
# get list of all AFS connected hosts
$vldb="rsl155";
@servers=`/usr/afs/bin/rxdebug $vldb -all | grep host`;
@servers=map (getip($_),@servers);
# remove dupes from @servers
%temp_hash;
undef @[EMAIL PROTECTED];
@servers = keys %temp_hash;
# get AFS version for each server
foreach $ip ( @servers ){
$version=`/usr/afs/bin/rxdebug $ip 7001 -version | grep version`;
chomp $version;
$version=~/AFS version:\s*(.*)/;
$version=$1;
$host=gethostbyaddr( inet_aton($ip), AF_INET );
$hosts{$host}=$version;
}
foreach $host (sort keys %hosts){
print "\n$host:$hosts{$host}";
}
print "\n\n";
sub getip{
my ($line)[EMAIL PROTECTED];
$line=~/(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)/;
$ip=$1;
return $ip;
}

I have a cron job that does this periodically and keeps a database with the
