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/.
