# Exim monitoring with Netdata Simple module executing `exim -bpc` to grab exim queue. This command can take a lot of time to finish its execution thus it is not recommended to run it every second. ## Requirements The module uses the `exim` binary, which can only be executed as root by default. We need to allow other users to `exim` binary. We solve that adding `queue_list_requires_admin` statement in exim configuration and set to `false`, because it is `true` by default. On many Linux distributions, the default location of `exim` configuration is in `/etc/exim.conf`. 1. Edit the `exim` configuration with your preferred editor and add: `queue_list_requires_admin = false` 2. Restart `exim` and Netdata *WHM (CPanel) server* On a WHM server, you can reconfigure `exim` over the WHM interface with the following steps. 1. Login to WHM 2. Navigate to Service Configuration --> Exim Configuration Manager --> tab Advanced Editor 3. Scroll down to the button **Add additional configuration setting** and click on it. 4. In the new dropdown which will appear above we need to find and choose: `queue_list_requires_admin` and set to `false` 5. Scroll to the end and click the **Save** button. It produces only one chart: 1. **Exim Queue Emails** - emails Configuration is not needed. ---
