RPC.RSTATD(8)           OpenBSD System Manager's Manual          RPC.RSTATD(8)

NAME
     rpc.rstatd - kernel statistics server

SYNOPSIS
     rpc.rstatd

DESCRIPTION
     rpc.rstatd is a server which returns performance statistics obtained from
     the kernel.  Some of these statistics may be read using the rup(1) com-
     mand.  The rpc.rstatd daemon is normally invoked by inetd(8).  At start-
     up, rpc.rstatd performs a chroot(2) to /var/empty and switches to user
     nobody.

     rpc.rstatd uses an RPC protocol defined in /usr/include/rpcsvc/rstat.x.
