Actually he's looking at the "SSH","ports","procs" columns. SSH is not a default column, so remove that from the end of the host's line in bb-hosts and use the drop command to be rid of that. As far as ports and procs I believe he wants to disregard them from the WWW pages. By default the client will submit info but there is no default "check this port/proc" for it to be green/red. If I recall correctly, you can put a ! in front of it to disable, though I'm not about that - can anyone confirm?

I also want to monitor another functionality(client side) using the ext script. can anyone please let me know step by step procedure. what can i modify from client side and what should i modify from server side? I tried to search a lot but could not get the desired answer that can be worked out.. :(

Thomas,

So you're saying if I have

1.2.3.4 my.host.com # !ftp

Then that tells the client to check the server's FTP from the client's perspective?

My understanding is that the ! means reverse the test. If serverA needs FTP running then it is tested as ftp, but if serverB must not have FTP running then use !ftp as the test. We use this reversed test for FTP and TELNET on some of our servers.

Very neat! Great tip to have! This will become exceptionally useful for mySQL!

We use this to make sure none of our servers are running the telnet server because we want our development team to use ssh.
