LINUXHEALTH memory check issues.

Hello,



I followed the guide located at :

http://help.serverscheck.net/monitoring_software/7/UNIX-Linux.html



the software was compiled on an Ubuntu 8.10.

The sofware seems to respond well except for the memory usage. Linux uses all memory available even if its not being used by applications, thus serverscheck reports all memory being used when in fact it is not.



I see that "free" is being used to fetch the memory usage on the server.c file. Would modifying "free" to "free |grep buffer" give out the correct memory usage ?

anyone ?

changing "free" for "free | grep 'buffer'" seems to give correct results when doing a test, but not when viewing the stats on the main window. the graph doesn't show correct % and constantly increases until reaching 100%, in which case it staarts back at 0 and does a constant loop.

Still no hints, tips or solutions? The LINUXHEALTH test is particularly useless do to this problem, memory will always give down alerts do to how linux manages memory recources.
