- Description:
- This is a plugin package for Nagios. Quoting from the
main Nagios package:
Nagios is a host and service monitor designed to inform you of network
problems before your clients, end-users or managers do. It has been
designed to run under the Linux operating system, but works fine under
most *NIX variants as well. The monitoring daemon runs intermittent
checks on hosts and services you specify using external "plugins"
which return status information to Nagios. When problems are
encountered, the daemon can send notifications out to administrative
contacts in a variety of different ways (email, instant message, SMS,
etc.). Current status information, historical logs, and reports can
all be accessed via a web browser.

net-mgmt/monitoring-plugins: Remove sudo from check_mailq
Fixes error:
/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_mailq
Global symbol "$sudo" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare
"my $sudo"?) at /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_mailq line 580.
Execution of /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_mailq aborted due to compilation
errors.
Upstream removed sudo for check_mailq completely in version 3.0.3.

net-mgmt/monitoring-plugins: Update to 3.0.1
*) Security: fix a potential local privilege escalation in check_icmp,
which might be possible if check_icmp runs with setuid (the default)
*) Change: check_nt, check_ntp, check_nwstat and check_overcr were
removed upstream; check_ntp is replaced by check_ntp_time and
check_ntp_peer
*) Change: check_http is deprecated in favor of check_curl
*) Change: check_snmp now uses net-snmp natively instead of executing
snmpget
*) Change: generalized, mostly multi-line output for many plugins
*) Fix: check_curl now populates the DNS cache when the hostname is
resolved locally
