None exists today. It should be fairly simple to write a NRPE wrapper around portmaster, however. I believe (but might be wrong) that net-snmp also has the ability to read the FreeBSD package database; you could run a snmpwalk on the target machine and compare that to a master package database. Good luck, and if you implement something be sure to let us know about it. ==ml > > Matthias > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. > Still grepping through log files to find problems?
