Some nagios check tools for Linux and a remote check http-server and udp-server as an alternative solution to NRPE or SNMP.

Some little man-pages are included. For more information please take a look at the sources, which are written and tested on Linux 2.6 x86.

Binaries in the package are statically linked with the dietlibc (excluding some *.asm sources). This package should work with every linux distro.
The memory footprints of knoerre and knoerred are low. When compiled with dietlibc and sstriped knoerre's file size is about 50KB and many "modules" can be removed from knoerre with '#undef' at compile time.

Someone called knoerre the "swiss army knife of linux monitoring".
