Hi Hans, Thanks for your concerns I really have nothing to hide, When I say software all it is, is a small script the generates a xml file, most of the "Open source" software that does this type of monitoring only pings your ports so there is no way of actually telling if the service is really running, And at the moment we are only testing for critical services that are crucial for website administrators, Please feel free to view the parsed file at www.xarex.com/monitor/client.php If you find any security flaws please let me know so that I can block them, this is one of the main reasons for having a beta test Regards Kenny -----Original Message----- From: Hans Lellelid [mailto:hans@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 15 June 2004 16:18 To: Kenny Cc: DBList Subject: Re: Beta Testers Needed Yeah, this is a joke, right? You want people to intall your software on their webservers which will send information about their servers accross the network to your server? Can we just cut to the chase & I'll send you the root password on my severs? Anyone interested in being alerted when their servers are down can use one of the many, many existing open-source solutions (which do a heck of a lot more than monitor uptime & apache).
