I have a Nagios machine which monitors many linux\windows servers.
I started working here about a week ago and got a task to make order in the Nagios.
As part of my order i had to add 2 more linux servers to the Nagios.
I've installed nagios-plugins and nrpe on both machines, in addition, i've verified that port 5666 is opened and listening on both servers and i can see nrpe running in ps -aux |gr
Oracle Linux; Icinga; Nagios plugins
I did all the easy steps command runs fine standalone through my normal login; looked at /var/log/messages to see if any clues there
Trying to run plugin under nrpe login - cant login don't know password; does this password matter? can I reset it?
I have a python script that's being used as a plugin for NRPE. This script checks to see if a process if running on a virtual machine by doing an SSH one-liner with a "ps ax | grep process" attached. When executing the script manually, it works as expected and returns a single line of output for NRPE as well as a status based on whether or not the process is running.
Im getting the same old "Unable to read output" message from this NRPE test. I can run other tests on this machine and I can su - nagios -c "<path to check_aacraid>" when running locally and it works.
Looking at /var/log/messages shows that the process is opened and started - it just doesn't seem to give back any message(s) that NRPE can digest.
What else can I use to debug this?
I am unable to add ubuntu server in nagios monitoring. I am getting "CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 40 seconds." error for few services "CPU Load, Cron File Check, Current Users, Disk Check, NTP Daemon, Time Check, Total Processes, Zombie Processes".
Im trying to use livestatus with nagios on FreeBSD.
I've managed to compile and configure it, but Nagios doesnt seem to be loading the module and dont produce any errors.
I want to grant users access to the nagios 3 core frontend by using an active directory group ("NagiosWebfrontend" in the code below).
I need to install Nagios NRPE on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6.0, but every guide I've found so far describes compiling it from source. This system does not have gcc installed and it is firewalled such that it cannot access the package repositories needed to install gcc via yum. Is there some place I can download the NRPE package manually?
I have a dependency problem while installing nagios-plugins :
yum install nagios-plugins-all
...
--> Processing Dependency: /usr/bin/sensors for package: nagios-plugins-sensors-1.4.15-7.el6.i686

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the probl
