Sharing Data Between Solaris and NT
If PeriReporter is going to be used to collect data from both Solaris and NT terminals
certain configuration changes have to be made to the .rhosts file.
On Solaris terminals the .rhosts file is located in the /home/peri directory. This
configuration change only needs to be made if data will be collected from both Solaris
and NT terminals.
On NT terminals the .rhosts file is located in the \WinNT directory. This
configuration change always needs to be made, regardless of whether data will or will
not be collected from both Solaris and NT terminals.
Open the .rhosts file and add the identifications of all terminals from where
statistics are to be collected.
The following example represents a system which has three Solaris terminals and
three NT terminals, where the .rhosts file from the first Solaris terminal (UNIX1)
is being changed.
UNIX2_NAME peri
UNIX2_NAME SYSTEM
UNIX3_NAME peri
UNIX3_NAME SYSTEM
NT1_NAME peri
NT1_NAME SYSTEM
NT2_NAME peri
NT2_NAME SYSTEM
NT3_NAME peri
NT3_NAME SYSTEM
Seeing as how the statistics are being collected on the UNIX1 terminal from the
terminals UNIX2, UNIX3, NT1, NT2 and NT3, only those terminals need be listed.
