Patch to add FreeBSD support (main functionality, no LVM staff yet)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Here's the patch to mmm-1.0, which adds FreeBSD support.
Changed files:
install.pl
lib/agent_commands.pm
lib/check_modules/ping.pm
lib/ifconfig.pm

Added files:
bin/sys/freebsd_uptime_sec (simple sh script to get uptime in seconds)

To get mmm installed on freebsd, follow these steps:
1. Patch original mmm-1.0 with provided patch :)
2. Copy attached script freebsd_uptime_sec to bin/sys
3. Recompile contrib/fping and contrib/send_arp (you may need to install
port /usr/ports/net/libnet and adjust Makefile to get send_arp compiled)
4. Make sure your perl compiled with threads support. By default it's not,
so do as root:
# cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 && make WITH_THREADS=yes
# make deinstall && make install clean
# portupgrade --force /var/db/pkg/p5*
5. Run install.pl

That's it. Now configure mmm the way you want it to.

P.S. LVM related fixes are still in progress, but main functionality
(monitor and agents) should work properly.
