Project Notes

Basic monitor that checks if the Checkpoint Firewall-1 Management software is up and running. It checks for a number of processes and ports. This script was quickly hacked together for my current customer, as a Q&D solution for their monitoring needs. It's no beauty, but it works. Written in ksh and tested with: * Solaris 8 * NRPE 1.9 * Checkpoint R55. Should work with other versions as well. The script sends a Critical if: A) One or more processes are not running, or B) One or more ports are not available for connections. UPDATE 19/06/2006: Cleaned up the script a bit and added some checks that are considered the Right Thing to do. Should have done this -way- earlier!
