The latest versions of tkined and scotty are amazing. Not only
are they useful system monitoring and network discovery tools, they are
useful for analyzing security as well. Auto-configuration is a welcome
addition. (I hadn't used tkined since around 0.4.)
That being said, I've noticed a few little problems:
The --with-tcl-include and --with-tcl-library options to the configure
script don't seem to work properly. If I have the includes and libraries
in non-default places, where they aren't in the expected subdirectories
of the directory specified by the --prefix option, configure won't find them.
I have also found that many times after discovering a route or an IP
network, many of the nodes, and even networks, are somewhere on the
canvas where I can't get to them with resizing or by using the scrollbars.
I can usually select all, then group, and move the group around enough
to get the nodes onto the visible part of the canvas, but this can
be difficult, and I have sometimes managed to end up with the collapsed
group itself in a place where I can't find it. I think I would like to
be able to make the canvas much larger than it currently is, but I assume
this would create conflicts with printing canvasses as postscript files
on normally sized pages.
I have also found that saving a file while network monitoring is running
will restore spurious machine icons in the places where CPU activity
(and so forth) were being shown.
Also sometimes I will discover a route or discover a network and, although
it will find the nodes, it won't always create the lines linking them to
the networks, although the report of the number of tkined objects created
seems to indicated that it thinks it found and created them.
In any case, it's a great tool, and it really shows off the power of
Tcl and Tk. Thank you!!!!
