ifmcstat -- dump multicast group management statistics per interface
SYNOPSIS
ifmcstat [-i interface] [-f address-family] [-v] [-K] [-M core] [-N system]
DESCRIPTION
The ifmcstat command dumps multicast group information from the kernel.
The following options are supported:
-i interface
specifies the interface to be displayed.
-f address-family
specifies the address family to be displayed; inet, inet6 and link are supported.
-v specifies that link-layer memberships should be printed; they are suppressed by default. It may not be specified for -f link.
Source lists for each group will also be printed.
If specified twice, and kvm(3) is in use, the control plane timers for each interface and the source list counters for each group
will also be printed.
The following options are only available if ifmcstat has been built with support for kvm(3):
-K attempts to use kvm(3) to retrieve the multicast group information.
-M core extracts values associated with the name list from the specified core, instead of the default /dev/kmem.
-N system extracts the name list from the specified kernel instead of the default, which is the kernel image the system has booted from.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
ifmcstat will always print the embedded scope IDs of IPv6 multicast group memberships. This is because memberships are always scoped to an
interface.
When run with the -v option, ifmcstat may print multicast MAC addresses twice if they are referenced by a layer 3 protocol.
When run with kvm(3) support, the names of all interfaces configured in the system will be printed in the first column of output, even if no
multicast group memberships are present on those interfaces. The output may also be slightly different, as the kernel data structures are
being traversed with minimal post-processing of the output.
When built without kvm(3) support, the information displayed by ifmcstat is more limited. This support is recommended for debugging pur-
poses. It requires super-user privilege if used to inspect a running kernel.

Introduction
I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:
$ ls -ld /usr/bin /usr/bin/cat
drwxrwxr-x 3 root bin 8704 Sep 23 2004 /usr/bin
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin ... (6 Replies)
I have a file which looks roughly like this:
996 mmmmmmm
996 xxxxxxxxxxxxx
99600 ssssssssss
9964 fffffffffffff
and would like to sort it numerically on the first field. I tried:
sort -nr --key=1 ....
The output I get is:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I'm trying to install a PGX32 video card on my Sparc 10 Ultra running Solaris 10.

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
The prompt is... (2 Replies)
Hey gang, I have a list of times I need to sum up. This list can vary from a few to a few thousand entries. Now I had found a closed reference to adding time titled "add up time with xx:yy format in bash how?" In it, the example works great for that formatted list of times... This is the reply code...

Usually when I on the evening go to bed I take some interesting book with me. I read it for a while to get me down to sleep. Probably most people seek information from the Nett by googleing but I am so oldfashioned I prefer a real book ;)
But what a book. The one I found and ordered is BSD Unix®... (0 Replies)
