Have the plugin read the password from a file off the disk. For each machine Scout is monitoring, put that password file somewhere only the Scout client user has access to.</p> <p>B. Set the DB password in an environment variable in the Scout user&#8217;s crontab, or just in the crontab line for Scout. Use the password from env in your plugin script.</p> Thu, 08 May 2008 18:44:36 -0000 forums.scoutapp.com:2:13:34 rafi http://forums.scoutapp.com/forums/2/topics/13 <p>I&#8217;m in <span class="caps">PDT</span>, and the graphs render in <span class="caps">EDT</span>.</p> <p>The minor inconvenience here is that the &#8220;Now&#8221; link in the datepicker seems to use JS to grab the browser&#8217;s time/timezone, and hence tries to render a graph based on 3hrs earlier.</p> <p>So, if you set up a new client monitor and then go to graphs to see the first bit of data, it&#8217;s harder to get to.</p> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 19:10:16 -0000 forums.scoutapp.com:3:9:19 rafi http://forums.scoutapp.com/forums/3/topics/9
