Ah yes, this is what I'm after.
I managed to dig up some HP-UX man-pages, and as far as I can tell you
need to use the lanscan command to determine the "PPA" numbers that are
valid, and then the lanadmin command above to get the statistics for
each interface card. Correct ?
In that case, I would think that the HP-UX client code should do
something like
lanscan -p | while read PPA; do lanadmin -g mibstats $PPA; done
Would that work ? And does it require root privs ?
Thanks,
