may i say this is an horrible solution!?(even if it is a solution)
this means i must setup some cron job consuming cpu cycles for nothing
but sending a message to syslog (which sends en email). To make it
short i should setup a a cron job that consumes cpu cycles for nothing
and send email realtime(without syslog interaction)
I believe it's difficult to catch syslog mesages from rhcs, since it
send to something *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none; then it is
not something easy to catch like local5.crit.
yum searchng "snmp" i found this cluster-snmp rpm.
now i'm gonna check it out, i will write about it as soon as it is configured!
You can use syslog if you want, but i want to point out that that is a
really bad solution!
