[Xymon] How to setup a custom script to attempt server logons and other functions

[Don Kuhlman]

Hi folks. I've been googling all day, searching the forums, and looking at other spots but obviously I'm doing something wrong.

I'm trying to now setup some customization in Xymon for business applications.

I want to do it either with a homemade script, download, or using built in features.

My first task is to try and login to an ftp server using a test id and password to verify it is up and accepting connections.

Next would be to connect via sFTP and try the same thing.

I'm also trying to do the same kind of tasks with webpages that host applications.

Can someone point me to the best way to do this from our Xymon server, and if there are code snips of how to make an ftp connection, send an ID, Password, and then quit, I would really appreciate knowing where to find them.

Regards,

Don K
