help for check_dell_warranty

I have done a trivial port.  I am sure an actually python coder could do
better but here it is (attached).

Subject: RE: [hobbit] help for  check_dell_warranty


Checked on two RH Linux boxes running on HP and IBM hardware,
Serial number is in dmidecode but dmidecode from RH doesn't take "-s" option
to show only serial number. So more  parsing work needed.

"Nice to have" feature but not a "must have" to me.

which looks pretty great and easy to integrate to xymon ...

Warranty start date: 7/24/2008 End date: 7/23/2011 Days left: 787


.. is there anybody to help or maybe likes it's so much too,
but have more coding experience/praxis as me .. :-(

thanks & cheers,

Martin

I don't plan on spamming y'all with release announcements but given that
this fixes a rather stupid bug, wherein the plugin does not return the
right status I thought I would let you folks know that I have released
version 1.1 of this plugin, location is the same:

http://www.monitoringexchange.org/cgi-bin/page.cgi?g=Detailed%2F3094.html;d=1

And again if you run into any issues please let me know.

Thanks to David Sparks for noticing this problem and letting me know.
