[Pdns-users] pdns monitor output

[Thiago Farina]

Hi!

While revising the documentation [1] I noticed that the output of pdns
monitor for version 3.x is very old!

The output presented online in the documentation is:

# /etc/init.d/pdns monitor
(...)
15:31:30 PowerDNS 1.99.0 (Mar 12 2002, 15:00:28) starting up
15:31:30 About to create 3 backend threads
15:39:55 [gMySQLbackend] MySQL connection succeeded
15:39:55 [gMySQLbackend] MySQL connection succeeded
15:39:55 [gMySQLbackend] MySQL connection succeeded

The output when running with a more recent version on the command line
is as follow:

$ sudo service pdns monitor

Maybe we can update the online docs?

Thanks!
