Monitoring OSX 10.4 Server

Yep.. Exactly.

macports installs into /opt/local instead of /usr/local, so you'll  
have to just change the paths around.


The installer should also place a link to the launchd plist to have  
launchd start it on bootup, but the plist is disabled by default, so  
if you want to enable starting on bootup, edit: /Library/LaunchDaemons/ 
org.macports.nrpe.plist  and remove:
<key>Disabled</key><true/>


Cheers!
