# MuninLite
MuninLite is a single Bourne Shell script that implements the Munin
protocoll as well as some Linux specific plugins. The motivation for
developing MuninLite was to provide a simple Munin Node, using inetd
on systems without a full featured Perl and/or bash or a busybox
system.
MuninLite is a standalone shell script that implements the Munin
protocol and contains a few basic plugins out of the box.
It can run as an inetd-based service over TCP or a simple
executable script communicating via stdin/stdout. The latter
does not require root privileges.
