# Monit on pfSense 2.4 ARM (SG-1000)

# Install the package from the FreeBSD repository
pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:11:armv6/latest/All/monit-5.18.txz

# Rename the rc.d script to .sh and fix permissions so pfSense will start it automatically
mv /usr/local/etc/rc.d/monit /usr/local/etc/rc.d/monit.sh
chmod 0755 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/monit.sh

# Add monit_enable=YES to a local rc.conf
echo "monit_enable=YES" >> /etc/rc.conf.local

# Add 'include /usr/local/etc/monit.d/*' to the monitrc:
echo "include /usr/local/etc/monit.d/*" >> /usr/local/etc/monitrc
chmod 0700 /usr/local/etc/monitrc

# Create a directory for your monit config files:
mkdir /usr/local/etc/monit.d

# Add the config files:
cd /usr/local/etc/monit.d/
# vi system.conf for example
# if you're using git or something, pull/fetch/clone your config files here

# Make a directory for the events log:
mkdir /var/monit

# On pfSense, if you're monitoring hosts across VPN links, be sure 
# to add a gateway and a static route to the remote LAN
