No, that's incorrect. These are plugins that, not only are we using, but I'm releasing via nagiosexchange.org. That being said, I am trying to strictly adhere to the perfparse output format defined in the Nagios Plugin dev documentation. Most of the graphing packages I've found for nagios respect the proper output. ----- Eric F Crist Secure Computing Networks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
