NAME

       pmsocks - shell wrapper for performance monitoring across firewalls

SYNOPSIS

       pmsocks path [args ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pmsocks  allows  Performance  Co-Pilot  (PCP)  clients running on hosts located on the internal side of a
       TCP/IP firewall to monitor remote hosts on the other side of the firewall.  This assumes the firewall has
       been configured with a compliant sockd daemon and the necessary access controls are satisfied.

       pmsocks  is  a thin shell wrapper around the tsocks(8) library using the tsocks(1) utility, which are not
       included with PCP.  You can obtain tsocks from https://tsocks.sourceforge.net/.
