This is a port for NSCA-ng. NSCA-ng provides a client-server pair which makes the Nagios command file accessible to remote systems. This allows for submitting passive check results, downtimes, and many other commands to Nagios or compatible monitoring solutions. NSCA-ng is comand line compatible with NSCA, but NSCA clients could not talk to NSCA-ng servers (nor vice versa). NSCA-ng has varios advantages over NSCA. It provides for example TLS encryption and shared-secret authentication with per-client password. The nsca-ng port contains the server part of NSCA-ng and the nsca-ng-client port contians the send_nsca client and various example scripts.
Carlo jumped the gun. Before this can be considered "patch-ready", we need to see some verification about it's quality. Unless Carlo wants to assign the port to himself at his own risk: In order of preference, examples of what I'm looking for are: 1) "poudriere testport" or "poudriere bulk -t" logs 2) Redports or tinderbox logs 3) "make check-plist" followed by "make stage-qa" output (https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/porting-testing.html) Also, please run "portlint" and paste the output.
Get this out of triage. There's no guarantee test logs are coming.
(In reply to John Marino from comment #1) > 2) Redports or tinderbox logs Redports, in its current form, is dead. Do not use Tinderbox. :-)
