It is inspired by the (closed source) pathchar +utility. Please do not assume that this program works exactly like pathchar +does. It only attempts to report the bandwidth between 2 hosts, and not the +bandwidth available at every hop on a route along the way. + +I've only tried compiling this on FreeBSD and Linux. There is some strange +behavior if your system has an outdated or limited FPU. My (oldassed) sparc +(this web server), for example, doesn't handle the floating point precision +types correctly for my tests. Oh well. + +Michael Bacarella <mbac@nyct.net> |
