[Nagiosplug-help] check_ftp

[Stephen Lomond]

I thought the FTP plug-in would check the service like the HTTP plug-in does actually retrieve info using the service and check it with a known value to determine if it is functioning correctly..

Besides, why would you want to do that?

What you could do is place a text file on the ftp server, and write a
small shell script that ftp's the file to your nagios box, cat's the
file into a variable and see if it matches the content of that file.
Or if it's a binary, just ftp it and compare the size.
