Nagios plugins

I don't like the standard monitoring plugins for Nagios. After hours of checking out alternatives, I finally decided to develop some own alternatives (and spend days Smilie).
The goal was to make system monitoring simple. (And not: getting as many details as possible.)
The plugins are written in standard shell. They work on Linux and Solaris and many other Unixes. They work well with nrpe (Nagios Remote Plugin Executor).
The attached zip file contains a text file DESCRIPTION that shortly describes the functions.
With some shell writing skills it should be easy to port the plugins to other monitoring tools.

NAME
munin-run - A program to run Munin plugins from the command line SYNOPSIS
munin-run [options] <plugin> [ config | autoconf | snmpconf | suggest ] DESCRIPTION
munin-run is a script to run Munin plugins from the command-line. It's useful when debugging plugins, as they are run in the same conditions as they are under munin-node. OPTIONS
--config <configfile> Use <file> as configuration file. [/etc/munin/munin-node.conf] --servicedir <dir> Use <dir> as plugin dir. [/etc/munin/plugins/] --sconfdir <dir> Use <dir> as plugin configuration dir. [/etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/] --sconffile <file> Use <file> as plugin configuration. Overrides sconfdir. [undefined] --paranoia Only run plugins owned by root and check permissions. [disabled] --help View this help message. --debug Print debug messages. Debug messages are sent to STDOUT and are prefixed with "#" (this makes it easier for other parts of munin to use munin-run and still have --debug on). Only errors go to STDERR. --pidebug Plugin debug. Sets the environment variable MUNIN_DEBUG to 1 so that plugins may enable debugging. [disabled] --version Show version information. FILES
/etc/munin/munin-node.conf /etc/munin/plugins/* /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/* /var/run/munin/munin-node.pid /var/log/munin/munin-node.log VERSION
