NTray .90d - Beta release

[Robert Wagner]

  Heya folks, just wanted to share something with you all.

   I've offered up a piece of utility software called NTray for use with
Nagios.  NTray is a small Win32 application that sits on your systray that
changes color as the status.cgi page changes on your Nagios web server.
It's written in Perl (taking advantage of the Win32::GUI module) and
compiled up with the Perl2Exe compiler. Also, it's licensed under the GPL
and comes with source code. If you're a better programmer than I (I'm
pretty poor at it), or if you have some good ideas, feel free to contribute
some code or ideas.

  Right now, NTray is not very sophisticated.. it cannot even tell the
difference between outages inside or outside scheduled downtime... but I am
working on that! :)

What it does now:
     -Sits on your systray and looks cute
     -Turns red/yellow/green or orange based on Nagios service and host
status. (Orange, with an exclamation point, means a problem reaching
Nagios)
     -Has a little .XML file for user configuration (There will be a
graphical configuration later)
     -Supports user logon/password to access the Nagios CGIs (if they are
protected)
     -Supports plug-in sound files on status changes (pcm .WAV files)
     -Allows turning on and off a very simple popup window. (which will
show more information later)

     I would offer it up for anybody to try, but beware! It is definitely
beta software.  It's never crashed my workstation or anything (I've been
running it for several weeks solid), but I won't offer any claims of
stability.  You can find it on the download page at the Nagios.org website.

                    Have a great time; hope it makes somebody's life easier
:)

                              Rob Wagner
