jffnms is fabulous. However it has recently
been release as version 0.9.x so a few install bugs
are out there. 

Portage still shows 8.3.x (way old)

Craig, the main developer of jffnms is very cool
and helpful. It's a smaller and tighter community
than the nagios-fork scene.

I ask some devs a while back to update the package,
but it never got updated....(real sad story here).

Jffnms supports both mysql and postgresql, but with
the new (9.0.x) postgresql series and the new
jffnms (0.9.x) series I have just been to busy to 
get them happy on Gentoo.

Open up a bug about version bumping jffnms
and the install doc help me get jffnms in shape
for Gentoo?

And look at the bottom of this bug

If you want to work on jffnms, drop me some emails
as most of the issues were resolved, I just drop 
the ball with too many other things going on. Beside
my "manners" with the devs are not the best, so
a fresh face motivated to test/use jffnms would go
a long way to easing the relationship with the devs
so that jffnms get's that version bump officially.
I have an early version of jffnms -0.9.x installed
but the devs refused to version bump it because 
it was not "pretty" and conformant to their standards....


drop me an email offline, as jffnms is very easily extended
and very cool to add any device....
