That will be difficult. You should connect to one of the DB and have a look at slony schema tables (sl_status and sl_listen for instance)... You may also have a look at that page : http://linuxfinances.info/info/monitoring.html > Also I'm having issues with the slonik script (below) that is supposed > to handle the failover to the slave in case of master failure.

" First of all, you may want to upgrade to the latest stable slony1 version. Cheers, SAS
