+#
+# Munin plugin to monitor oracle connections w/o DBD::Oracle, or perl for that
+# matter ;-)
+#
+# Author: Kevin Kunkel (kunkel.kevin@gmail.com) on December 11, 2007
+# (Based off the perl munin plugin by Joan Carles Soler)
+#
+# Licenced under GPL v2.
+#
+# Usage:
+#
+#       If required, give username, password and/or oracle server
+#       host through environment variables.
+#
+# Parameters:
+#	autoconf
+#       config   (required)
+#
+# Config variables:
+#
+#       ORACLE_SID        - Which database to use. Defaults to orcl
+#       oracle_user       - A oracle user account with read permission to
+#                           the v$session view. Defaults to
+#                           'oracle'. Anyway, Munin must be told which user
+#                           this plugin should be run as.
+#       oracle_pass       - The corresponding password, if
+#                           applicable. Default to undef. 
+#
+#	SHOW_ORACLE_USERS - If set to 1 show usernames and num. of connections.
+#		     Default is not show users (0).
+# Magic markers
+#%# family=auto
+#%# capabilities=autoconf
