Package: nsca-client (2.9.2-1)

Nagios service monitor agent - client package

This package contains only the client part of nsca and is thus suitable for installation on systems that only report passive service checks to a central server.

Nagios is a monitoring and management system for hosts, services and networks.

Nagios' features include:

 -  Monitoring of network services (via TCP port, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP,
    PING, etc.)
 -  Plugin interface to allow for user-developed service checks
 -  Contact notifications when problems occur and get resolved (via email,
    pager, or user-defined method)
 -  Ability to define event handlers to be run during service or host events
    (for proactive problem resolution)
 -  Web output (current status, notifications, problem history, log file,
    etc.)

Nagios was written in C and is designed to be easy to understand and modify to fit your own needs.
