Votes:

0

It would be useful to have a sensor for monitoring OpenVPN Access Server running on Linux, specifically the number of users currently connected, along with number of accounts locked out, etc.

It looks like there's an idea of how it could work here: https://kb.paessler.com/en/topic/88034-i-would-like-via-the-ssh-sensor-to-retrieve-the-number-contained-in-the-response-of-an-order

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

If you want to submit a feature request for such sensor, please follow the procedure described in this KB article: https://kb.paessler.com/en/topic/79245-how-can-i-propose-new-features-or-sensors-for-prtg

Otherwise, as mentioned in the KB artcile you linked, you can use the SSH Script sensors to execute a script which gets the information you desire. Please, make sure to follow the structure mentioned in this manual to return information in PRTG.

Kind regards.
