Hi all !
here's my Mon 0.99.2 configuration :
# Very simple mon.cf file

hostgroup Ext nsext.mydomain.com

last day, the Router service went down, so 'Ext' watching began to fail..
the problem is that the failure leght has been 1h 39 mintues !! and never
became Alert.. so no Alert has been sent for that hour..
this would be a great problem, as the service we are monitoring is our
Router connectivity..
any ideas on the reason why this could happen ?
..and we also need to monitor the responding time of the service..
I mean the service 'fails' only if the fping did not respond in xxminutes ..
I've read before how to do it, but I can't find it right now..
Any help would be appreciated..
thank you very much
GB
