New port "munin": Extensible system monitoring tool

[adambyrtek@…]

Description:

Munin the monitoring tool surveys all your computers and remembers what it saw. It presents all the information in graphs through a web interface. Its emphasis is on plug and play capabilities. Using Munin you can easily monitor the performance of your computers, networks, SANs, applications, weather measurements and whatever comes to mind.

Tried to install:

--->  Staging munin into destroot
Error: " [...] " returned error 2
Command output: echo Group munin nonexistant. Create the group and retry; exit 2 
Group munin nonexistant. Create the group and retry
make: *** [install-node-non-snmp] Error 2

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

But the group and user do exist:

$ dsmemberutil getid -G munin
gid: 504
$ dsmemberutil getid -U munin
uid: 504

The Makefile tries to use nicl which does not exist on Leopard anymore. It should use dscl instead, which is available for both Tiger and Leopard IIRC. The tools seem to use the same syntax, so it is as simple as replacing nicl with dscl.

I didn't notice this as I use Tiger. Thanks for testing, I will update the Portfile later today.

[adambyrtek@…]

Leopard compatibility fix (use dscl instead of nicl)

[adambyrtek@…]

Minor typos fixed

[adambyrtek@…]

New files attached, should be fine now.
