check_named

Basic monitor to check whether BIND is up and running. It checks for a number of processes and tries to perform a basic lookup using the localhost. 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 * BIND 8 Should work with other versions as well. A Critical is sent if: A) one or more of the required processes is not running, or B) the script is unable to perform a basic lookup using the localhost. 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!
