I have modified the "nfswatch" program, which is useful for gathering
statistics about NFS operations, so that it understands FDDI packets
as well as Ethernet packets.  So far, I have only done this for Ultrix
systems (Ultrix version 4.2 or later, and if you have any flavor of
4.2 you will first have to apply the infamous "packet filter patches"
to the kernel).

If anyone with an FDDI-equipped SunOS system wants to try to make
nfswatch work there, please send me the necessary modifications (once
you are comfortable with them).  David Curry and I will integrate them
into the next release of nfswatch.  I'm also curious to know if this
version successfully compiles and runs on SunOS, even if it doesn't
add FDDI support.

Also, if anyone wants to port nfswatch to a system other than Ultrix
or SunOS, we'd be happy to get the results of your efforts.
