fifo

Dear friends
i'm want to implement a program which one file is split into fragments by the server (by some random size) and sent to some processes, so these processes get randomly the fragments of the original file from the server, then the downloader randomly connects to some of these processes and gets the fragments.
I want to know what technique to use, should i use message quees or i can simply use fifo and get the fragments using simple byte streams, what do u suggest?

rrpc_inq_stats(3ncs)													      rrpc_inq_stats(3ncs)

Name
       rrpc_inq_stats - obtain statistics about a server

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rrpc.h>

       void rrpc_$inq_stats(handle, max_stats, stats, l_stat, status)
       handle_t handle;
       unsigned long max_stats;
       rrpc_$stat_vec_t stats;
       unsigned long *l_stat;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       handle	 A remote procedure call (RPC) handle .

       max_stats The maximum number of elements in the array of statistics.

       stats	 An  array  of 32-bit integers representing statistics about the server.  A set of rrpc_$sv constants defines indices for the ele-
		 ments in this array.  The following list describes the statistic indexed by each rrpc_$sv constant:

		   rrpc_$sv_calls_in
			     The number of calls processed by the server.

		   rrpc_$sv_rcvd
			     The number of packets received by the server.

		   rrpc_$sv_sent
			     The number of packets sent by the server.

		   rrpc_$sv_calls_out
			     The number of calls made by the server.

		   rrpc_$sv_frag_resends
			     The number of fragments sent by the server that duplicated previous sends.

		   rrpc_$sv_dup_frags_rcvd
			     The number of duplicate fragments received by the server.

       l_stat	 The index of the last element in the returned array.

       status	 The completion status.  If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it was  suc-
		 cessful.

Description
       The routine returns an array of integer statistics about a server.

Restrictions
       On  the	client	side,  because	of the way the calls are defined and implemented in the run-time library you must explicitly call into the
       entry point vector table for the interface to send an request across the network. The following is an example  of  a  call  that  works	as
       desired:
       (*rrpc_$client_epv.rrpc_$inq_stats)(handle,
	       (unsigned long) max_stats, stats, &l_stat ,&status);

       The server sidestub routine calls the entry oint on behalf of the client.  The results of the call are then passed back to the client.
