Hi Tev,
Thanks for your patch. I wouldn't have any objection committing the code
itself as it's totally non-invasive for other platforms, OTOH it's
missing any documentation on this alternative, especially how an
external program could send commands to Nagios. Could you please write
up something that would get the average sysadmin up to speed as to how
this system works?
Also, I would rather make this a configure option and turn it on by
default on cygwin. What if next Cygwin release fixes named pipes?
Thanks
