[Nagiosplug-help] Solaris 8 and the plugins...

[Scott Walker]

Honestly, I have given up on nagios and solaris, I've spent 3 days 
compiling source/patching/fixing/sacrificing chickens and virgins in 
trying to get this working.

I'm moving my monitoring box to debian-sparc, hopefully this will prove 
more fruitfull than solaris. It pains me to do so, but it's obvious 
nagios|nagios-plugins are not solaris friendly (without major 
patching/fixing).

I'll install nagios on my home sparc-20 and play with it. But I cannot 
justify spending 3 days on a simple project, when in 2 hours I could 
have it setup from scratch and done.

PS: How can I help get the solaris and hopefully non-linux side up to 
par. Karl, is it that you have no solaris machines to devel on? I can 
donate a shell on a machine if it will help things out.
