Overview

About

Maintained by Wei-Chen ChenCRAN page ↗Website ↗

A very light implementation yet secure for remote procedure calls with unified interface via ssh (OpenSSH) or plink/plink.exe (PuTTY).

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/pbdRPC/pbdRPC_0.2-1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "pbdRPC_0.2-1.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.2-1) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
