Hello!

So i´ve taken a look at perfparse!
It looks really good and fully implemented into nagios, but one thing - at first look i miss is
integrate plugins without perf parse option.

For me at the moment is no use for perfparse cause i have to monitor some w2k terminal server. :(

No i use nagiostat - it´s kinda hard to configure but you can use each plugin.

Thanks for your comment, and i´ll also try perfparse for our *nix systems!

Bye! - and a nice weekend!
