At the moment Stanley is working on a clean version of the plugin and
will place the result in the contrib.

OK. I've grabbed the Big Brother Citrix plugin from Ed Rolison
(http://www.deadcat.net/cgi-bin/download.pl?section=1&file=bb-citrix.pl).
He managed to write it with the help of tcpdump. I personally think
this is very cool and a job well done. Thanks Ed.

However, the output that NetSaint expects is totally different from
the output BB wants. So I've changed parts of the code so it works
with NetSaint. I then tested it in our environment, and it works OK.

This plugin does not take any command line arguments. Just adjust the
beginning of the script so it reflects your setup. If you use a farm,
then you can use the broadcast address (that's how I use it),
otherwise add the server address(es) you want to check.

Good luck,
Tom De Blende
