Hi... The line i want to test with DevMON in bb-hosts is: 10.21.25.1 SW # DEVMON:tests(cpu) I don't have any logs. I just want to read out the communitystring "public" I've also configure a "crontab" with the following parameter: */15 * * * * perl /usr/local/devmon/devmon --readbbhosts When I execute this on commandline it's run, but no logfile being created in /var/log What Am I doing wrong? Kind Regards, DNS
"Normally" there should be a logfile in the directory where devmon is installed. You can configure this and other things in the devmon.cfg file.
If you have added a new entry into your bb-hosts for devmon then you have to run ./devmon --readbbhosts to update the hosts.db file.
After that you can start the daemon simply by executing ./devmon; it will daemonize and run in the background, performing the SNMP test every 5 minutes (default).
