Upgrading monit on ubuntu dapper

April 20, 2009

Monit in the ubuntu dapper repositories is a bit old. I found the following to work
for me.

  sudo apt-get install libssl-dev build-essential bison flex
  wget http://mmonit.com/monit/dist/old/monit-4.9.tar.gz
  tar xvzf monit-4.9.tar.gz
  cd monit-4.9/
  ./configure && make && sudo make install
