monitoring HTML changes on sites

[Jeff Verheyen]

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http --help

Options:
...
 -s, --string=STRING
   String to expect in the content


Use the -s option to verify if your page contains a certain string.

This might be ah html comment such as:

<!-- This is my test pattern-->

The default server pages probably won't contain your 'special' test
patterns...
