       data

SYNOPSIS

       cricket-compile
       /usr/share/cricket/collector
       /usr/lib/cgi-bin/cricket/grapher.cgi

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  programs  associated  with
       Cricket.

       cricket-compile
              The  cricket-compile  program  compiles  the Cricket config tree
              (found in /etc/cricket) into the format read by  the  collector.
              It  is  normally run after editing the files in the config tree.
              No options are needed.

       collector
              The  collector  program  reads  a  Cricket  configuration   from
              /etc/cricket,  compiled  by  the  cricket-compile  command,  and
              collects and stores data  according  to  the  information  found
              there.  It is normally run periodically from a cron(8) job.

       grapher.cgi
              grapher.cgi  is  a  CGI program to display the data collected by
              Cricket in a graphical format. It is usually  accessed  using  a
              web   browser,   e.g.   using   the   URL  http://localhost/cgi-
              bin/cricket/grapher.cgi.  It will allow you to  navigate  around
              all of the targets in the config tree.

       This  manual  page  was  written  for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
       because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead,  it
       has documentation in the HTML format; see below.

SEE ALSO

       The  programs  are documented fully by various HTML documents available
       via the help system, or directly in /usr/share/doc/cricket.
