Changes since 1.1: +4 -4 lines 

temporary fix for README, but going to rewrite for read-only bgpd.sock

check_openbgpd - checks status of OpenBGPd peers

The only real caveat is that bgpctl needs rw permission to /var/run/bgpd.sock.
One way to allow for that is by adding an entry to /etc/sudoers and then
making the check run sudo check_openbgpd.

This is an example of a setup for NRPE. For checks on the machine running
Nagios, use the _nagios user in /etc/sudoers instead of _nrpe, and of course,
no ${SYSCONFDIR}/nrpe.cfg.

/etc/sudoers:
_nrpe ALL=NOPASSWD:${PREFIX}/libexec/nagios/check_openbgpd -w 1000\:300000 -c 100\:500000 -n peer1 peer2 peer3

${SYSCONFDIR}/nrpe.cfg:
command[check_openbgpd]=/usr/bin/sudo ${PREFIX}/libexec/nagios/check_openbgpd -w 1000:300000 -c 100:500000 -n peer1 peer2 peer3

For more information on bgpd(8) see the OpenBSD man page.
