[Nagiosplug-devel] New ps utility for Solaris check_procs

[Ton Voon]

Bob,

That sounds great. If you could supply your patches to SF's patch  
tracker at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/? 
group_id=29880&atid=397599, we'll look into it. Give me a nudge if  
there is no action :)

We are only developing against CVS HEAD at the moment, so if you  
patch against that, it will increase the chances of it getting in.

Re: Solaris ps command, are there any other command flags that do  
provide > 80 chars commands?
