When trying to load the simple monitor the following errors occur:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Any feedback on how to resolve the errors would be greatly appreciated.

Could you try pip install --upgrade pyOpenSSL for the virtualenv simplemonitor is installed in?

[haderp]

Upgrading pyOpenSSL after installing simplemonitor resolved the issue. When installing simplemonitor using pip install simplemonitor it installs pyOpenSSL-20.0.1 and will give that error every time you try to launch. Once upgraded everything works as expected. Thanks for the direction as I've been chasing the root cause of the error for a week without finding the exact offender.

Thanks for confirming. Should probably look at cutting a new release soon!

Awesome, I look forward to it. After trying all of the opensource/free solutions available yours is definitely the best for monitoring a small home lan without a ton of overhead and features that aren't geared towards a small network. Thanks for your work and time.
