On the first hand i get errors related to ncsclient itself :
The error on the monitored host is :
Event Source: NRPE_NT
Description:
NRPE_NT: Error: Request contained illegal metachars!
The error on NSC.log is 2006-04-22 12:35:59: error:../../include\Socket.h:443: bind failed: 10048
When i look to netstat i get (i kept the most relevant lines):
TCP 0.0.0.0:5666 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 6896
[NRPE_NT.exe]
TCP 0.0.0.0:12489 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 14168
[NSClient++.exe]
TCP 0.0.0.0:1248 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 1052
[pNSClient.exe]
So i have NRPE_NT and nsclient (not ++) installed, is there's a conflict with nsclient++ ?
On the second hand i get errors related to the check_command:
The error on the monitored host is :
Event Source: NRPE_NT
Description:
NRPE_NT: Error: Request contained illegal metachars!
When i try nsclient++ /test, the first error i notice is that it doesnt handle the space in the path of the files ( Program Files) --> File=d:\Program
Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1
.stm File=d:\Program
Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.edb
I tried both 'Program Files' and "Program Files" but it doesnt work.
From the command line on the nagios server i try like this :
../libexec/check_nrpe -H catorsv03 -c check_exchangeDB -a MaxWarn=15G MaxCrit=16G File=d:\'Program Files'\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.stm File=d:\'Program Files'\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.edb'
