[Nagiosplug-devel] New plugins, autoconf & pre-built binaries

[Voon, Ton]

check_cpu is actually a cpu check on processes, not the overall load on a
system. Maybe a rename to check_procs_cpu? If so, there is a check_vsz to
check the virtual size of processes - maybe this should change to
check_procs_vsz for consistency?

I also notice that the configure.in holds checks for an RSS_COMMAND,  but
there is no check_rss. Is this worthwhile to do? (I'm thinking a symlink of
check_vsz, but with slightly different processing, ala check_tcp / check_ftp
/ check_telnet)
