custom ncpa plugin development under linux

Post by medleyb »

Is there a document somewhere that describe the process of creating a custom linux NCPA plugin (/usr/local/ncpa/plugins) with solid examples? I can see one for windows but it is more geared towards windows. I would like to write a "complex" plugin that checks several items and returns the appropriate status.

Thank you.

No examples per-se but you can use any language that can be executed from the linux command line
