This is a plugin package for Netsaint. Quoting from the
main Netsaint package:
NetSaint is a program that will monitor hosts and services
on your network. It has the ability to email or page you
when a problem arises and when it gets resolved. NetSaint
is written in C and is designed to run under Linux, although
it should work under most other *NIX variants. It can run
either as a normal process or as a daemon, intermittently
running checks on various services that you specify. The
actual service checks are performed by external "plugins"
which return service information to NetSaint. Several CGI
programs are included with NetSaint in order to allow you
to view the current service status, history, etc. via a web browser.

Say hello to the new "net-mgmt" category. There are probably more
ports that belong here than the ones I have identified and moved in
this, first, pass.

This project was renamed to nagios for over a year ago and we have
a net/nagios port.

For those who have not heard, NetSaint is being renamed to Nagios.
NetSaint is no longer actively being developed - all development is now being
put into Nagios.

Fix non-default dependency on openldap2[012] which is broken by splitting.
# I'm not bumped port revision of them because this should not affect
# packages built on bento...
Bump PORTREVISION.
check_snmp calls snmpget without '-c' parameter, which is mandatory
with NetSNMP 5.x. Add '-c' to the command line to make it work with
both NetSNMP 4.x and 5.x.
check_by_ssh dumps core with called without -C, also usage help output
does not document -C and -v.
check_ssh plugin incorrectly parses the SSH banner.
check_ntp does not work with NTP v2. Add -n option to be able to
select NTP version.

Update netsaint-plugins to 1.2.9.3. Don't depend on netsaint port as netsaint
port depends on us and this creates a circular dependency. Instead create the
netsaint user/group ourselves (which is the only reason for the netsaint
dependency).
Release to the world all of my ports that I don't use, excluding KDE 1, which
I'm holding for various reasons, so some kind soul can take the time to fix
them without having to wait for me.
