Re: Freebsd and nagios-plugins
If not, change your options for the port by: # cd /usr/ports/net/nagios-plugins; make config including the net-snmp option, and reinstall nagios-plugins. spot on. thank you so much Lowell _ Dont just search.

Freebsd and nagios-plugins
hello.I'm having problems finding the nagios plugin check_hpjd. A person of the nagios mailing list told me that it might not be inculded because it needs net-snmp. | | check_hpjd: | - Requires the NET-SNMP package available from | http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net | The snmpget binary is all that is required. | | I'm not sure if your package maintainer choose not to include it as a | result. | can anyone verify this for me and explain how i can install this from ports? I realize that i can downbload the source from cvs but i guess there is some knowlegde i am missing since i am new to the ports system. i have searched the web but can not find a thing. i am running freebsd6 and have installed net-snmp and nagios-plugins ports. thankyou for any help.

Configuring default 6.0 install to send mail
Hello list. I am learning FreeBSD and I'd like to know how to configure Sendmail to simply forward mail although it seems it's doing this by default. I can send mail, but it's being rejected since mylocalhost.mydomain.com doesn't resolve. I'm using internal hosts that will never have DNS entries. I'm looking for somewhere where I can specify that [EMAIL PROTECTED] can send mail as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm pretty sure that my mail would be accepted if I can do this. I don't want to set up a mail server, I'd just like to know how I can get my logs and admin mail forwarded to an external address. I apologize for not sending this to a sendmail list, but I figured there may be something simple and specific to FreeBSD that I have overlooked. Thank you for any help :) BL _ On the road to retirement?
