Hi all,
I found it quite useful for our Mailserver to report the number of established SMTP connections. If I haven't overlooked this function nothing for doing this exists in Zabbix yet. So I wrote a patch, that adds a new
item. It counts the number of ESTABLISHED TCP connection on the specified port. By default only incoming connection to the port are counted. Mode can be set to 'remote', then only connections whose remote port matches are counted. 'all' counts both matching ports on the local and remote side. The patch is against 1.4.4. and works only for Linux. Also only IPV4 are counted, but is is quite straightforward to extend this to IPV6. BTW, the disabled net.tcp.listen item can be implemented the same way.
P.S. I also have a Gentoo ebuild for this
