Full Version: Setup - Ssh Server Details - Linux Specifically?

When setting up a server, the "SSH server details" section asks if the OS is Linux or Other. Will you be expanding this to other members of the UNIX family tree such as BSD?

You could try 'fooling' MONyog by telling it is a LINUX server.

MONyog retrieves the information from the /proc folder (I think it is called) on Linux. This folder does not contain 'real' (disk) files - everything in this system folder is stored in memory actually - but the information is adressed as were it stored in files.

This is not a LINUX concept actually. Also UNIX's do this - and did since first UNIX's saw day of light in the 60'ties. LINUX inherited that concept from UNIX. However there are so many different UNIX branches now (SCO, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, BSD's and probably more!) and we do not have a monkeyman's chance to test and code for all that.

We would of course appreciate a note if somebody observes that it works on other *nix. Of the many UNIX's I think that FreeBSD and Solaris are most important/most MySQL relevant.

We will be providing "official" support for other Operating Systems soon
