There is no default configuration for mon.  The docs most useful
for setting up your /etc/mon/mon.cf file are the mon(1) man page,
README.hints, README.monitors and examples/mon.cf.

mon comes with a CGI interface in the monshow client.  monshow is both a
CGI and a command line client, details are in its man page, monshow(1).
See README.cgi-bin and the contrib directory at the mon distribution
site (http://www.kernel.org/software/mon/) for other offerings.

monshow isn't installed into /usr/lib/cgi-bin by default since CGI is
auxiliary to the package's purpose.  For apache's standard configuration
run

    ln -s ../../bin/monshow /usr/lib/cgi-bin

to be able to use it that way.

The distribution used to come with a simple CGI script called opstatus.cgi,
but it was dropped from the upstream distribution (because monshow run as a
CGI script took its place).

It also used to come with a CGI script called mon.cgi, but this has been
split into a separate distribution.  It hasn't been packaged for Debian
yet, however.
