Sounds like a good idea to me. > Adding Include "/etc/collectd.d/*.conf" in collectd.conf and creating > the directory seems to work. Well, kind of ;-) This will report an error on startup if there is no file matching the specified pattern. This would confuse users if it was used in the default configuration (-> everybody would get the error). Anyway, I've created a patch adding support for recursively including all files matching a specified pattern. In this case, no error will be generated if there is no match. This way, I could add the following to collectd.conf: Include "/etc/collectd/collectd.conf.d" "*.conf" This would work similar to "find /etc/collectd/collectd.conf.d -name *.conf" and include all files found this way. See <https://github.com/collectd/collectd/pull/205> for details. What do you think? ;-) Cheers, Sebastian -- Sebastian "tokkee" Harl +++ GnuPG-ID: 0x8501C7FC +++ http://tokkee.org/ Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin
