[Announce] m/monit alpha1

[Jan-Henrik Haukeland]

You can obviously reach monit from m/monit, but there is a problem  
which prevents monit from posting events and its status to m/monit.

Did you remember to configure each monit instance to post events to m/ 
monit? I.e. you should put the following in your .monitrc:  set mmonit http://monit 
:monit@<m/monit-host>:8080/collector

Where <m/monit-host> is the IP address of the host running m/monit

If you have, check that there is not a firewall blocking monit from  
reaching the m/monit server. You can also run monit in debug mode  
(monit -Iv) to see error messages from monit which should be helpful.
