After installing the package you have to edit the files in /etc/smokeping/config.d to set your preferences. Note that the domain names are bogus to avoid all the people who install the package DoSing the same servers, but at the same time an fping probe in localhost is enabled, so you can check if smokeping works for you. You can also edit the file /etc/smokeping/basepage.html to suit your needs. A FastCGI configuration might be desirable for large sites. Simply add this to the Apache configuration, in /etc/apache2/conf-available/smokeping.conf: SetHandler fcgid-script Please refer to the smokeping_config man page to see all the available options. -- Antoine Beaupré , Sat, 12 May 2018 16:02:25 -0400
