Hi,
We use a lot of external scripts in combinaton with MRTG.
On rare occations, theese scripts seem to "hang" around
for a long time, giving a lock file error message from MRTG,
probably due to an error in the script.
Do you know a way to add a timeout in the
"sub getexternal" routine in ber.pm (in line 1637?):
open (EXTERNAL , $command."|")
|| warn "WARNING: Running '$command': $!\n";
There seems too be a default timeout - the loc file will
disapper after about 1-1.5 hours, but we would like to
reduce this to about 240 seconds.
regards
Lars Rune Bjørnevik
