Guys,
I'm new to Mon and have taken over a non working install of Mon which I
desperately need to get working...
Anyway, what does the -P option mean/do?
Ie. monitor process.monitor -P augw -C /etc/mon/process.monitor.conf
for process.monitor, -P does nothing. i'm not sure what you're trying to
do or from where you got that example, but if you elaborate then maybe i
can help out.

RE: Help with mon.cf switches

[Craig Reeson]

Thanks for everybody's help so far...

It has been mentioned that the -P and -C switches are no longer
supported/used in mon-0.99.2
So what should I replce these switches with? (I am running Debian
testing w/ 0.99.2-7)


Here is a larger section of my mon.cf:

# global options
#
cfbasedir   = /etc/mon
alertdir= /usr/lib/mon/alert.d
mondir  = /usr/lib/mon/mon.d
maxprocs= 20
histlength  = 100
randstart   = 60s

authtype = getpwnam
