hosts.conf - Access control for Network UPS Tools CGI programs
!!DESCRIPTION


The CGI programs (upsset.cgi(8),
multimon.cgi(8), __upsstats.cgi__(8),
__upsimage.cgi(8)__) use this file to determine if they
are allowed to talk to a host. This keeps random visitors
from using your web server to annoy others by creating
outgoing connections.
!!DIRECTIVES


MONITOR ''ups description''


The ''ups'' element is in the form
''


MONITOR snoopy@doghouse:7877


The description must be one element, so if it has spaces,
then it must be wrapped with quotes as shown
above.
