Kwdist

Distributed Analysis is no longer supported.

The kwdist command starts the Distributed Analysis Server that is used to control a remote analysis and distribute work to hosts running analysis agents.

The kwdist command must be run on the machine where you will be starting the Distributed Analysis Server. You cannot run this command remotely.

By default, the Distributed Analysis Server uses port 3440. To use another port, pass the --port option to the Distributed Analysis Server.

Note that you do not need to stop the Distributed Analysis Server when the analysis is complete.

Example

kwdist --port 3441
