rpm for VMWare vMA appliance 🔗 link

Does anyone know what happened to the yum repo on staff.telkomsa.net?

I'm setting up a little VMWare appliance to monitor the VMWare servers. It's a minimalist CentOS 5.3 distro.

Then I'm installing the VMWare-monitor software, which says to put a xymon client on the machine, and suggests Telkomsa's rpm for that purpose.

Unfortunately, that went away a couple of months back. I haven't figured out, or have time to build my own rpm.

The teribithia 4.3.7 version wants lsb, and who knows what else. I guess I'll start down that road.

Hi Paul

I think Buchan Milne was looking after that site.
You might want to drop him a line.

Having just been bit by the 150M or so that "lsb" pulled in on my minimal
RHEL6 install, I'd agree that that's unwarranted. For some reason I
thought RH had split that out at some point.

I just uploaded a new package removing the Require.
