[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#709297: nagios-plugins-basic/mail.cfg/check_smtp: starttls

[Elrond]

Package: nagios-plugins-basic
Version: 1.4.16-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


Hi,

could you add the following to
/etc/nagios-plugins/config/mail.cfg?

I think, it's a reasonable setting:
- People running an smtp server with login want starttls
- I think the 30 days for warning are a good compromise. If
  it takes a few weeks to buy a new cert, that seems okay.
  Feel free to lower to 21,5.


define command {
	command_name	check_smtp_starttls
	command_line	/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_smtp -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' --starttls -D 30,10 
}


I leave it to you, if you want to add an additional version
for doing the same thing on port 587 (submission).


Cheers

Elrond
