Well, there were forum posts on this before. I believe you could use HTTPMonitor except for that you need to authenticate.. I think you'll need to script this somehow, using either the Enterprise version of Zenoss + their relevant paid Zenpack, or something like Twill or Webinject with (or standalone from) Zenoss Core. But search for that earlier forum thread and see if I'm making this harder than it needs to be (the authentication portion). You could probably also just use bash + wget + grep... in your own script with Zenoss Core. -- James Pulver Information Technology Area Supervisor LEPP Computer Group Cornell University
