[Devmon] Starting problem

[Whilding, C. <Cra...@me...>]

Excellent hobbit enhancement which will get rid of quite a few Perl
scripts when I've finished writing all the templates.

I have been running it as a foreground process with the -f switch but
without this I am also getting "Can't fork: Inappropriate ioctl for
device" Forking to background process *****". This is on RHEL3 again.

For APC UPS's you may want to copy the power stuff over to a model 9617
as this is what all my management card equipped UPS's show as so it
might be a popular one (?). They are 3000 and 5000 models.=20

A problem I now have though is how devices are discovered as a certain
type. I have a script that monitors free dhcp addresses on Windows
boxes. If it just looks up model there Is nothing special about this
box. Im not sure how I can get around this but I would need to put an
exception in for all other windows boxes I monitor so it doesn't try to
show dhcp free addresses for them.

Keep up the good work though :-)
