I'm sure there are tons of potential pitfalls, and this script should be considered beta at best, but I thought it was useful to me, so maybe it could be for someone else. oh, and the , configs. dengar is a good example it's monitoring http connections on both port 80 and 8080 and as a final note, the standard disclaimer should be understood; I offer this code with no sort of warranty whatsoever. -- #!/usr/bin/perl #read through a config file and generate nagios configs. #created by zgreenfelder at gmail.com #This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify #it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by #the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or #(at your option) any later version. # #This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, #but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of #MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
