+The B<mbmon> module uses mbmon to retrieve temperature, voltage, etc.

+collectd connects to B<localhost> (127.0.0.1), port B<411/tcp>.
+The B<Host> and B<Port> options can be used to change these

+running to work correctly. If C<mbmon> is not running timeouts may appear
+which may interfere with other statistics..

+C<mbmon> must be run with the -r option ("print TAG and Value format");
+Debian's /etc/init.d/mbmon script already does this, other people
+will need to ensure that this is the case.
