gkrellmd for IPCop

The thought occurred to me the other day that it might be cool to have a gkrellm monitor on my main workstation displaying throughput on my IPCop firewall. I couldn't find a gkrellmd addon for IPCop, so I put one together. This is based on gkrellm-daemon 2.2.5 and includes the necessary glib2 2.4.7 libraries.

Instructions are in the tarball, but essentially you just tar zxf gkrellm-server-ipcop1.4.tgz at the root dir of your IPCop system, edit /etc/gkrellmd.conf and /etc/rc.d/rc.local to run /usr/bin/gkrellmd -d. It's been tested on IPCop 1.4.10, but should work on any 1.4 release. You can monitor all the normal info, as well as specific IPSec connections.

Grab gkrellm-server-ipcop1.4.tgz here.
