In the cgi-bin directory are two clients:

opstatus.cgi
------------
    opstatus.cgi is a very trivial CGI script which will make some
    decent-looking output for a WWW page that shows the current operating
    status of the mon server.

    To configure, adjust the $MONSERVER, $MONPORT, $IMG, and $REFRESH
    variables in the script. $IMG should be set to your company logo
    or something like that.

    Failed services are hilighted in red.  Host groups are enumerated,
    and hosts which have been disabled are shown in blue. The table
    is sorted in the order of failed watches, disabled watches, and
    disabled services, as to keep the most important information
    at the top of the screen.

    In order for opstatus.cgi to do its thing, "list: all" must be
    defined in the "auth.cf" file.

    Feel free to make something better than this. Maybe you
    want graphics or something. I'm not big on graphics, but color
    is often useful. Art Chan did a good job with mon.cgi!

mon.cgi
-------
    mon.cgi is an interactive web interface written by Art Chan.
    It has graphics, buttons, and looks a good deal better than
    opstatus.cgi. To use it, it must be configured, so read the
    instructions that are commented in the source code.

    mon.cgi is not yet able to allow a user to authenticate to the server,
    but read-only commands work fine. This will be fixed soon.
