Hello one and all, I use Gentoo, for (8.3-r2)JFFNMS. It has been a while since I updated my small network monitoring system. I used postgresql (8.0.15) on a gentoo system.
Well the Gentoo devs have fixed much that was wrong with how Gentoo supported postgresql: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/PostgreSQL "The greatest benefit reaped from this slotting method being that bug and security fixes, which are delivered via minor version updates, can be applied without fear of corrupting data; 8.4.1 can be updated to 8.4.2 as they're guaranteed to be compatible" So now I ready to get the latest JFFNMS working with Gentoo, again, and document how this all works.....(er with some help...) Here is the old JFFNMS/Gentoo docs: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/jffnms.xml So, does JFFNMS work with postgresql 8.4.2? All are welcome.... as I'm going to perform a completely new installation on a separate machine and interface a few systems, routers and embedded boards (snmp) and maybe a ups or 2 to get the bugs worked out before cutting over my small, humble network to the new server...... I'm also giving heavy consideration to postgresql 9.0_2beta for many reasons listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/about/featurematrix Caveats? Suggestions? Comments?
