Perhaps you can help with my problem since you rely on the WUG web server.
My WUG web server keeps crashing.  Have you experienced this?

Hello Adam,
We used to have the same problem and solved this with a little trick. What
we do is that we monitor the website from the slave WUG. I made a custom
service for this.
Under Send command to connect: put the following line 
GET /_top.cgi HTTP/1.0\r\nAccept:
*/*\r\nUser-Agent:Ipswitch_Whatsup/4.0\r\n\r\n
Then under expected command response put in
        ~~<TD ALIGN=RIGHT>0</TD><TD ALIGN=RIGHT>0</TD>

This custom service checks a remote whatsup webserver to display if all is
well. Works great for me so I hope it helps.
                                Regards,
                                Michael Bouma

        Hi Adam,

        Here is an idea that worked for us (not ideal).  Setup the slave WUG
to run
        a NT service such as FTP.  Have the master WUG monitor the NT FTP
service on
        the slave.

        If the slave has a device or app that fails to respond, have it
execute a
        program locally (batch file) that basically stops the NT FTP service
and
        have it send a trap to the master.

        The above results in a color change on the master representing the
slave.

        I hope that gives you some ideas.

        Sincerely,

        Michael Patterson

        Has anyone successfully enabled WUG to monitor remote installations
of WUG?
        What I am trying to do is create a master/slave relationship.  I
would like
        to monitor the status of remote WUG programs by one master
installation.  I
        have been successful at enabling SNMP traps to report back to the
master and
        spawn the desired built in notification.  However, I cannot cause
the master
        map to reflect it as a down service and give me an icon color change
(other
        than the highlighted name).

        Any input appreciated.

        Thanks

        Adam
