	Has anyone managed to get xmeter running on an Encore Multimax
running BSD 4.3. It compiles and runs without errors but displays all
hosts (including itself) as down. This problem appears to be in the
routine getmeter which always get the return status RPC_TIMEDOUT from
the clnt_call routine. I'm a complete rpc novice so I don't know where
to start fixing this problem. Any help would be appreciated. The
getmeter routine is included below.
