[smokeping-users] [BULK] Re: New probe speedtest

[Adrian Popa]

Hello Christoph,

The probe should be copied into your smokeping installation directory - 
for instance here: /opt/smokeping/lib/Smokeping/probes/.

If you don't know where it is, run locate (if available):

[adrianp at internetqualitytests ~]$ locate Curl.pm | grep 
Smokeping/probes/Curl.pm
/opt/smokeping-2.6.8/lib/Smokeping/probes/Curl.pm

Make sure the pm files are readable by the smokeping user (or world 
readable).

Cheers!
