I'd like to test the status of a remote machine in a script. Something like:

I noticed that when I went over to CentOS-5.4
on my server (and re-booted),
my openvpn connections failed for a couple of hours,
and then came back.
Has anyone noticed this?
What puzzled me was that the tun0 interface

I suppose, at this point I could just delete the 5.3 update directory

But how large is the 5.4 update directory?

The output message "Permission denied" comes from STDERR not from STDIN.
You should redirect stderr to stdin on your command, to make it work.

Couple of diff ways to go about this.

I also enable SNMP on my switch and monitor throughput of individual

I think I have a solution:
In the guests' XML files, I set a target device name
so they will always use a known device (Instead of
getting an aribtrary vnet* device).
Next, using snmp on the host, I can get the interface stats
for that device and use cacti to graph it.
