Hi, 
        I posted a message quite similar few times ago because I wanted to do the 
exact same thing.  The only thing that I can say is that there is nothing in WUG to 
facilitate that task.

So I wrote a program (the script is in C++ but it could be in DOS batch file also) 
that do all the verification that I want and if it fails, I send a trap to WUG.  The 
major problem with that is the fact that you can't set a trigger for a trap in WUG.  
So, as soon as your script sends a trap, WUG automatically send a notification. And 
that bothered me a bit.

In WUG's directory, I modified "traps.txt" and "mib.txt" to set a new OID for my 
company when my script sends that trap.

That is the most efficient way I found but if someone finds another way to do it, I 
would be interesting to see it also.

Thank you

Objet�: ***SPAM*** RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Executing Program As Monitor

I have been trying to figure out a good way to do this forever.  The only
thing that could come up with is to write a script that does everything and
send a trap/syslog/or wirite to a web page that can be content scanned by
wug.

If there is a better way, I am dying to know.  It would certainly expand the
flexibility of WUG 10 fold and provide simple functionality that is included
with lower end products.

Oh ya, that and WMI polling which the guys at WUG do not want to answer,
because if they put that basic functionality in, they would not be able to
charge the ridiculous money for the SQL and Exchange plug ins which just use
simple WMI.

Am I right Pete?
