NOTICE: This package has been removed from pkgsrc

./net/netsaint-base, Network monitor

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.0.7nb8, Package name: netsaint-base-0.0.7nb8, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

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.

Log message:
Make it easier to build and install packages "unprivileged", where
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user.  This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.

(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
    unprivileged.mk.  These two variables are lists of other bmake
    variables that define package-specific users and groups.  Packages
    that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
    and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
    etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
    so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
    and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.

(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.

Log message:
Point MAINTAINER to pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org in the case where no
developer is officially maintaining the package.

The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to \ 
"pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list).  Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
