Install notes

• Install a 0.6.x version of node.js

Then clone the repository and use npm to install the dependencies. We currently need the "from git" version of node-dns/native-dns and the latest version is on the node-dns-request branch.

git clone [email protected]:devel/pgeodns-monitor.git
git checkout --track origin/node-dns-request
cd pgeodns-monitor
npm install https://github.com/tjfontaine/node-dns/tarball/master
npm install .

Now run the monitor with:

node monitor.js

and access the interface on http://localhost:1090/

There are some bugs in lib/dns-monitor.js and/or in node-dns that makes it stop working after a couple of hours. The master branch is using more stable features of node-dns and might work better.
