Re: [monit] MONIT_DESCRIPTION returning old description not new one

[index one]

Thanks for the info,
Anything that I can do to help / check?
Is it an easy fix / likely to be fixed soon?
Maybe if you could point me in the right direction I could look at
fixing myself / getting someone to fix it and submit a patch.


Thanks for your help,
John
