Is the device visible from the network in any way at all? Or is it possible to configure the device to have an ip address? If not, you will need to get creative. Maybe create some kind of direct serial or usb connection between the nagios monitoring server and the monitored hardware. Then write a custom plugin to check the connection. -Kurt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
