in reply to Monitoring a firewall using ssh (was: Is this possible in Perl?)

I don't know this particular product, but I think you will never find the "firewall daemon running" because firewall is a function of the kernel, which will be configured by the daemon.

    It's pretty normal you don't know it, since it's kinda expensive :) Just assume you can check if it's running by checking the process table.

    As a sidenote, Net::SSH::Perl is probably what you need. Net::SSH doesn't have all the gimmicks.
