Ah, right. Sounds like I've been lucky with my version combinations; check_dns and other similar vanilla stuff from the ports of FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE and 4.9-RELEASE worked right out of the box. I must admit I haven't tried (or more accurately, needed) most of the more exotic plugins.

It's a bit of a pain when trying to run various things (like nagios), where scripts and whatnot are written for Linux and break subtly (or completely) on FreeBSD.

What sort of problems did you bump into with Nagios? I've used it with FreeBSD and Solaris, but I haven't really had any trouble.

They also operate a car wash and figured they could use surplus office space at that location to open a Linux store.

Yeah, definitely. Irssi has all I need: Easy handling for multiple ircnets and servers, SSL support, support for Perl plugins, and it's themable and easy to use.

Yeah, it's incredible they aren't willing to do commercial class tech support even though they're working on it for free, ain't it?

Nice.
