+This is a set of simple nagios plugins written in perl, python, shell-script & powershell
+for testing pureftpd-related parameters
+
+# Usage
+
+## check_symlink_log.sh:
+
+This script checks is there are FTP accounts with root folcers set to paths that are symlinks. It relies on check_symlink_accounts.sh to fill in the logs first, and based on the log output check_symlink_log.sh will report OK or CRITICAL
+
+```sh
+./check_symlink_log.sh
+```
+
+### Exit codes
+```
+    0 - OK
+    2 - CRITICAL
+```
+
+### Examples
+Example call when there are users with symlink root directories
+```sh
+./check_symlink_log.sh
+```
+Returns:
+```sh
+CRITICAL - Number of ftp accounts with symlinks as root is 4. The full list can be seen in the /var/log/symlink.log
+```
+
+Example call when there are no users with symlink root directories
+```sh
+./check_symlink_log.sh
+```
+Returns:
+```sh
+OK - Number of ftp accounts with symlinks as root is 0
+```
+### Nagios client setup
+
+Assuming you are using nrpe client on Linux, the check scripts should be put into: `/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/atomia/`
+
+#### cron.d
+New file in cron.d should be added with the content line this:
+
+```sh
+*/5 * * * * root /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/atomia/check_symlink_accounts.sh
+```
+
+#### nrpe.cfg 
+
+Configuratoin should be as follwong:
+
+```sh
+command[check_pureftpd_symlinks] = /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/atomia/check_symlink_log.sh
+```
+
+### Nagios server sertup
+
+Since the script is a shell script that is triggered with `check_nrpe` example call for domain admins would be:
+
+```sh
+/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H ftp01.atomia.hostcenter.com -t 150 -c check_pureftpd_symlinks
+```
