perl scripts (check_squid.pl)

[Jorge Gil]

Hi everyone again:

I think I was wrong in my question, in case it helps anyone having the same
troubles, it s better to use the check_http command to test proxies also:

>From the command line you can check if it works with this:
./check_http -H [proxy_server_IP_address] -p [proxy_server_port] -u
http://www.google.es

And then you can use simple commands like
define command {
   command_name  check_bluecoat
   command_line  $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 8080 -u
http://www.google.es
 }

(my proxy listens on port 8080)

In recent emails (from where I got this idea, thank you!), it looks like the
https connections can't be tested like this...

Kind regards,
Jorge
