Hi,

I've done a plugin for that, but it's in a (very) early stage of development. It's not very difficult to parse the status page of freenas, but... I couldn't make it 'locale-independent', only works for spanish language on FreeNAS.

A week ago, I sent a feature request to the freenas project... a XML status file (locale independent) to parse the status info easily.

Today, I have the answer from the lead developer... he will include a XMLRPC server ASAP, so... maybe the plugin for FreeNAS is closer.

I've (also) considered to do a PHP script (including it into the FreeNAS distro) to generate a XML status file and parse it later... but I would have to distribute it with plugin... and I think it's not an 'elegant' solution.

That's good news. Can't wait to try the plugin when it's ready.
I run my LCD on a server that runs virtual version of freenas, so seeing freespace etc would be useful.
