Hi orca users,

I've read the documentation inside-out and I feel rather stupid saying that I cannot figure out for 
sure whether you need to have orca (or orcallator) running on every machine you want to monitor, 
or only on the "orca server". It looks like it would have to be installed on every machine and the 
data would somehow have to be visible to the plot-producing machine, but I can't be sure. At the 
moment I'm using MRTG and I only need to install anything on one host. It rshs (or sshs) to all 
monitored hosts to gather the data. If this is not the case for orca, i.e. if I have to have it run on 
every host, then I won't be able to use it unfortunately.

Can anyone confirm whether I have to install SE toolkit on every host? Please e-mail me directly. 
(I'll join the list if it looks like I can use the tool.)

Thank you very much.
Freundliche Grüsse
