-Simple nagios monitoring scripts.
+Simple nagios monitoring and notification scripts.
 
 `check_ircd` attempts to connect to an IRC server.
 
 `check_senderscore` checks the senderscore (a metric for whether an IP address
 tends to send spam email) of an IP address.
 
+`ircbot.sh` runs as a daemon as the nagios user, connects to the configured
+IRC server and channel, keeps the connection open, and relays messages from
+nagios to the channel.
+
+## Setting up `notify_irc`
+
+Change the configuration parameters in the script itself.
+
+Edit your nagios commands configuration (eg
+`/usr/local/nagios/etc/commands.cfg`) and define a new host and service
+commands that write to the file `/tmp/ircmsg`. For example:
+
+```
+    define command {
+        command_name    notify-service-by-irc
+        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service: $SERVICEDESC$ Host: $HOSTALIAS$ Address: $HOSTADDRESS$ State: $SERVICESTATE$ Additional Info: $SERVICEOUTPUT$\n" >> /tmp/ircmsg
+    }
+    define command {
+        command_name    notify-host-by-irc
+        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host: $HOSTNAME$ State: $HOSTSTATE$ Address: $HOSTADDRESS$ Info: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n" >> /tmp/ircmsg
+    }
+```
+
+Then create a contact with parameters:
+
+    service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-irc
+    host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-irc
+
+Check that the new configuration is valid:
+
+     sudo /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
+
+And then restart nagios with `systemctl` or `rcctl`.
+
+Register `ircbot.sh` as a service with `systemd` or `rc`. (TODO: write service
+files for these.)
