Hi
Hi,
I'm currently searching for a way to monitor an active directory using
nagios. The mainproblem I have is that I my active directory knowledge
tends to zero. I'm currently searching for docs where I can find atleast
the ports which I have to monitor, but until now without success. I had
the idea to define all ports which I have to monitor (when I know which
ports are involved), and then I want to put them into a servicegroup
called active directory. Is there anybody out there who has done
something like that in the past, or has a config snippet which could
lead me into the correct direction. A pointer to a document which
describes or lists the ports I need would be enough. Thanks in advance!
If you want a deep analysis of your Active Directory, I suggest you have
a look at the WMI provider (MSDN documents it; you may access it through
NC_NET for instance) or the SNMP MIB (if it exists -- I don't know, though).
If you just want to test some ports, you need at least the 88 (kerberos)
and 445 (Microsoft-ds). You might also try 137-138-139 which are used
for NetBIOS over TCP.
The best approach would be a tcpdump of a typical Active Directory
access from a computer of your network so that you know which ports are
used during a transaction; see http://www.netadmintools.com/art173.html
