Hi...
The line i want to test with DevMON in bb-hosts is:
10.21.25.1 SW # DEVMON:tests(cpu)
I don't have any logs. I just want to read out the communitystring "public"
I've also configure a "crontab" with the following parameter:
*/15 * * * * perl /usr/local/devmon/devmon --readbbhosts
When I execute this on commandline it's run, but no logfile being created
in /var/log What Am I doing wrong?
Have you started devmon itself ? The devmon --readbbhosts is just there to 
update the "database" of hosts to poll.

As far as I remember, a sample init script is provided in the source tarball, 
you can use that to start devmon.
