Hi Eric, You can check the sync'ing using the debugging feature - it will say "file xxx out-of-date, sync'ing with server... OK" etc. It's impossible to test properly through the shell - as there are a couple of views which are loaded through Ajax - which isn't supported by either a shell script or the Lynx browser. You also cannot debug it through a shell script as you need to be able to pass a variable into the request.
As for permissions, you need the following for the user the web-server runs as (if you use NLG's client and server on the same machine, then both sets of permissions apply): on the server-side: - read access to the whole of the server/ directory - write access to the server/index directory - read access to the Nagios var/ directory on the client-side: - read access to the whole of the client/ directory - write access to the root of the client/ directory - write access to the client/sync-files directory Andy.
