Monitor using "grep"

All,

 

 

Looking for a little guidance. I would like to know if I can set up a monitor ( multiple monitors ) that would run a "grep" command and based on results -- mark a member up or down.

 

 

Appreciate and help anyone can provide,

 

 

Thanks

    Do you get the same delay when you SSH without the script? It's possible that the SSH server is configured to do a reverse lookup of the client IP. If so, you can disable that on the server by setting UseDNS to no in the sshd_config file.

     

     

    If you're using SSH from a monitor, you should do key based auth so you don't need to hard code a user/pass somewhere:
