Description:
You supply a file or files of hostnames, one per line, or let
it read from stdin.
You can use this to add RRDs to a host describing
the various services running on a server, or at least the ones that the
port-collector knows how to talk to. It's actually a very limited
port-scanner, and will attempt to connect to each of the
services. For each one that answers, new-port-hosts
will write an entry for the corresponding rrd.
If the host has no file, new-port-hosts
will add one with appropriate
header info and a ping rrd. Otherwise, it will just add the port-based
rrd's to the end of the host file.
