Hi, Nagios uses perl scripts to check tcp services, you could use them instead of a complete installation.

It's pretty slim (makes Wireshark look huge by comparison) and easily scripted (since it's a command line tool). -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] pgpyKqCgRj0IE.pgp Description: PGP signature

It's lightweight (in comparison to e. g. Nagios), GUI-based and very comfortable. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
