The check_jabber plugin appears to be broken, it's linked to check_tcp
but it tries to use SSL which fails since my server isn't using SSL,
despite jabber being up and working.

So I wrote a checkcommand for jabber with the standard check_tcp plugin.

Does anybody have a better way of testing jabber? Perhaps a decent
plugin or a command line tool that I can wrap in a shell script or
something?

-h
