Yes, if you can do it from the command line or via script then nagios can do it as well. Seems like it would be pretty straightforward to do with perl and Net::SNMP. Nagios doesn't include any 'restart' capability by default because the number of variables is too significant. Nagios _does_ provide an Event Handler interface to allow you to build that functionality to suit. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
