All,

I was looking back with some curiosity to see if anyone was still unhappy about not having nwadmin anymore. I find it occasionally useful, like nsrwatch, but better. I haven't seen anything on the list recently, so I assume most
everyone is happy with the current offerings.

But in case you like the simplicity of nwadmin, here's what I did:

On one of my storage nodes, running 7.4.4,
I placed the following 2 files from a 7.2.1 Linux distribution:

/usr/bin/nwadmin
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/networker

The 7.4.4 distribution had placed a small
"networker" file in /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults, which
I renamed.   So far I haven't seen any negative result
from that.   And as far as I can see, I've got a working
nwadmin.

If this has already been discussed, sorry for any wasted bandwidth.

Matt Temple
