stork-agent - Stork agent that monitors BIND 9 and Kea services

Synopsis

stork-agent [–host] [–port]

Description

The stork-agent is a small tool that operates on systems that are running BIND 9 and Kea services. The Stork server connects to the Stork agent and uses it to monitor services remotely.

Mailing Lists and Support

There are public mailing lists available for the Stork project. stork-users (stork-users at lists.isc.org) is intended for Stork users. stork-dev (stork-dev at lists.isc.org) is intended for Stork developers, prospective contributors, and other advanced users. The lists are available at https://lists.isc.org. The community provides best-effort support on both of those lists.

Once Stork becomes more mature, ISC will provide professional support for Stork services.

History

The stork-agent was first coded in November 2019 by Michal Nowikowski.
