It can cope with multiple SETI@home +clients which share a directory hierarchy accessible to the machine it +is run on, clients which each have their own private filespace (using +rsh, ssh or equivalent) and even works for boxes running Windows NT. + +SETI::Stats borrows from Jan Rocho's perlseti.pl, but differs in +several ways - this is a module devoted to stats gathering rather than +a general purpose control program, it can be used to monitor remote +machines without even requiring Perl to be installed on them, and +it provides a generic framework for access to (both local and remote) +SETI@home client stats. It could also be extended to cover stats +gathering from the SETI@home WWW server, though this may be better done +in a separate module to avoid code bloat. |
