Package pdsh-2.18-1

Pdsh is a high-performance, parallel remote shell utility. It has built-in, thread-safe clients for Berkeley and Kerberos V4 rsh, and can call SSH externally (though with reduced performance). Pdsh uses a "sliding window" parallel algorithm to conserve socket resources on the initiating node and to allow progress to continue while timeouts occur on some connections.

The Fink pdsh package is built with the following flags: --with-dshgroups --with-exec --with-nodeupdown --with-readline --with-ssh --without-rsh --without-xcpu Note: this means that the rsh transport module is *NOT* available by default! Avoid using rsh if possible. Also, Xcpu support is not available.
