Sometimes you don't know you want something until it's gone. I was looking at this bug and thinking it might be nice to watch our timeservers for drift and things, since time is frequently depended on for everything but rarely verified (by me at least).
It looks like NtpPlugin has been removed from capsd and the only reference to it now is in poller-config.properties. Is it still possible to turn this on? I'd love if it worked like StrafePing where I tell it where I want to monitor and it only looks there. Or just leave it out of the "Foreign Source" list so it's not discovered, but only polled if someone adds it directly to a nodes services. I guess the alternative is that since we're using FreeBSD for our timeservers I can just write some kind of wrapper in net-snmp. (but if thats the case, you might want to excise the rest of NtpPlugin and close the related bug(s)) Notes (for me): http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/daily_ntp.html site with notes on using MRTG for it (bleh) http://www.oidview.com/mibs/9/CISCO-NTP-MIB.html http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ntp-ntpv4-mib-05 Cisco has a MIB so I may add it to our routers and see what happens. It looks like the ntpv4-mib draft expired two months ago with no revision or final rfc (so doing SNMP in a standards compliant way is out) Thanks, Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Please read the OpenNMS Mailing List FAQ: http://www.opennms.org/index.php/Mailing_List_FAQ opennms-devel mailing list To *unsubscribe* or change your subscription options, see the bottom of this page: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennms-devel
