i-scream queue monitoring using rrd.

tdb, 21/10/01.

XML parsing is done using the following;

XML::Parser
http://wwwx.netheaven.com/~coopercc/xmlparser/

Expat
http://expat.sourceforge.net/

Both of those need to be installed first.

Finally, rrdtool is needed for graphing. It can be found here;

RRDTool
http://rrdtool.eu.org/

With that lot installed, start watch.pl;

./watch.pl iscreamserver.domain.com 4510

This will generate the rrdtool databases from the live data the i-scream server provides.

./graph.pl

This will generate the graphs. This is best run on a cron job.

Finally, index.php will make a dynamic page based on the data graph.pl generates.

See TODO for things still to be done.

Log Message:	An experimental go at using rrdtool to graph i-scream data. Graphing the Queue's seem like a good idea, as this wasn't done anywhere else. The README file gives details on how this works.
