Hi Kevin,

there are no statistics available from the caRepeater. Sorry.

Also, your description sounds as if you rather need to have debug
information about the current status than statistics, which usually are
numbers and rates collected over a long time span.

You can always compile the caRepeater with '-DDEBUG' which will make it
blurp about all kinds of things.

You should also have a look at the casw command line utility, which is
part of Channel Accesss (documented in the CA manual).

Hope this helps,
Ralph
