Server :: Nagios Passive Or Remote-host-side Alert?
Jan 6, 2010
Is this possible that a process running on a remote-host only inform nagios when some thing is wrong. Rather then nagios-monitoring-server checking through NRPE every so often. Reason is I want to add too many alerts in the application. And I don't want a whole list of ok messages.

I'm trying to setup my test nagios to check the disk space of another linux box. I've got it setup and checking. But to my surprise, it was checking the nagios server's local disk space instead of the remote linux.
Here is my services.cfg.
define service{
use basic-service
name disk-space
check_command check_local_disk!20%!10%! /

I've got problems uploading files to a remote FTP server using passive mode with enabled SuSeFirewall2 (Using 11.2)
I've disabled Firewall and everything went ok. Why firewall disables or terminates OUTGOING connections to a remote FTP?

Now how do i create web access to 3 of them, so that they can monitor only their server? Say, India shouls be able to see and monitor only India group, US guys should able to monitor only US servers. And they not be anle to access other group.

I have installed Nagios 3 on CentOS 5.2. Everything is running. It is monitoring 10 machines and 60 services for now. Now I want email notifications for the critical alerts from Nagios. I am already having one mail server (Qmail) running on different machine and I want to use its reference to send alerts to my network.

I have got a nagios server running on my network, The configuration seems to be okay but each time there is a service alert notification, and an e-mail is sent to the contact group, Nagios continuously sends e-mail over and over again. Do anyone know of a way to set Nagios directives to only send one e-mail per alert without it flooding mail boxes.

We recently had a vulnerability scan done on our network and one of the vulnerabilities was that the dns server discloses the remote host name when using hostname.bind.
Is there any way that we can stop this from happening? Our name server is a Fedora 11 machine.

I installed Nagios following the Quick Install method from the Nagios.org web site but now I would like to add and monitor another host.I don�t find a way , I have for example replaced the ip number of the localhost(127.0.0.1 localhost.cfg) for another ip number and I am able to monitor another computer that way. But then I no longer MONITOR the localhost unless I replace the ip number in the localhost.cfg file. what I would like to do is to monitor both or more computers.

I've recently been asked to setup our FTP server to accept connections from a remote host. They sent me a file "id_dsa.pub" with instructions to add this key to the xfer user.
Unfortunately I've no idea how to do this!

I've setup vsftpd correctly and it's running fine with local users (in the same LAN). However, when remote users wanna login to the server, it takes more than 1 minute to get in. Users do can login from remote. It just took too long. (It prompted for the username and password very fast.) Since the server is behind a router, I did configure the port forwarding for TCP 20-21. The centos version is 5.3. The vsftpd is v2.0.5.

I'm using NFS and I have the following problem. After ~100 days, the client and server lose connection, but the client doesn't know about this, it gives no error. The problem is that the changes on the server side aren't visible on the client side.
The nfs options are: "noatime, nolock, hard, udp, notcp, nosuid, nodev, rsize=8192, wsize=8192, actimeo=60"
The kernel version is: 2.6.16.27 built with 250 Hz. Is this an already corrected issue in a kernel version? Or are my options wrong?

Since a week or 2 Nagios is constantly marking hosts (servers mainly but also a few Serial-over-IP converters) down for anything up to a few minutes. Typically, all services stay in OK status. Looking closer at a host in such state, it's status information is
CRITICAL - Packet Filtered (<IP address of host in question>)
in soft state. Sometimes services are in critical state with the host in OK status. Almost always the status information is "No route to host". Further checking shows no problems. Rarely this state lasts longer than one check interval. This started after a link was down, putting, correctly, all hosts and services on red for being unreachable. The link problems were solved within a few hours but Nagios only showed this after 2 reboots. Since then the problems has lessened in frequency gradually, from 5 to 10 of the 34 hosts being reported down at any given moment (the same for the 150-ish services monitored) to where I am now, 1 to 5 problem statuses (counting both hosts and services) and the occasional 'all green' screen. A week ago, when the problems were going a week already, Nagios updated from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1. This showed no apparent improvement.
Still, the Host Groups screen is not stable. A read or yellow status initially signified a problem to be looked at, right now it is likely a false alarm to will go away. Whenever the "packet filtered" or "no route to host" is followed up by a ping test, no problems, not even with the slightest delay or packt loss are found.

I am using nagios to monitor a local host and a remote host in a vmware, where both the machines working in CentOS. Now i need to monitor MySQL in my local host so that i should know whether MySQL is up and running. I came across some plugins like
check_MySQL_health
check_MySQL_status
check_MySQL_stat.
While i was trying to install check_MySQL_health, i cant get clear description about the installation and i got stuck with that.

I believe that I need to disable the host check, I'm checking a public FTP service and ping is disabled on that FTP host. This is resulting in Nagios reporting the host as down, but the service shows as OK.
Is there any way to disable the host check?

My question is about checking remote services under Nagios. I have installed nrpe and the standard plugins on my Nagios server (RHEL 5.4) and the systems I want to monitor. I have been able to create hostgroups. I am somewhat confused as to how to add a new service. I want to check to see if tomcat is running on the remote servers. I found a plugin check_procs. If I run the following command on one of the remotes it works.
Quote:
check_procs -u tomcat6
PROCS OK: 1 process with UID = 101 (tomcat6)[code].....
It doesn't work. I'm not sure how to format the service.I've found gobs of documentation on how to setup and install Nagios, done. I've not been so lucky on how to setup a new service.

I have configured Nagios Server and Client on my RHEL 5.4 machines using these links and help html files in tar balls.

I have this scenario.
Nagios Server - 192.168.1.200
Nagios Client - 192.168.1.201 (This is the remote-host I am trying to monitor)
I firmly believe I have at least configured it right as this command on Nagios Server does not show any errors.
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

We have ubuntu server and bind9 installed and setup.When I issue rndc reload or /etc/init.d/bind9 reload I got this:rndc: connection to remote host closedThis may indicate that* the remote server is using an older version of the command protocol,* this host is not authorized to connect,* the clocks are not syncronized, or* the key is invalid.If I issue named-checkconf /etc/bind/named.conf I got this:/etc/bind/named.conf.local:165: unknown key 'rndc-key'I got the key files in the right location but I'm not sure if we even need to use them.
