This is the README file for the program checkpris 1.0.1
I threw it together pretty quick, so if you feel I'm missing anything or
see a discrepency (spelling?) email me.

Files in this package:

checkpris.c   -	The main prichecking program. Compile with:
		gcc -o checkpris checkpris.c
checkpris.cfg -	Default config file that the program reads to get its
		hosts and pris to check.

READ-ME       -	This file
CHANGES       - Changes made to the program between versions


INSTALLATION
------------
1. Copy checkpris.c and checkpris.cfg to wherever you want them installed.
   Edit the DATAFILE #define in checkpri.c to specify where you put
   checkpris.cfg
2. Edit the rest of the user-definable section of checkpris.c
3. Compile checkpris.c. Usually "gcc -o checkpris checkpris.c"
4. Edit the checkpris.cfg file to configure your hosts and pris you want
   to check. See the file for the syntax of each line.
5. Run program. (read USAGE below)


USAGE
-----
You can run the program 2 ways.

1) From the command line by typing just "checkpris"

2) From crontab to do timed checking
* Set up a crontab entry for the checkpris program. I run mine every 2
  minutes like this:
	*/2 * * * * /path/to/checkpris
* Be sure to restart the cron daemon


Please fire off some email to me if you find this program useful.
