The point is to configure SELinux to allow whatever is necessary. This will not only be apache and the cgis, but also the monitoring plugins and, of course, nagios itself. I've never used SELinux, but AFAIK you can run a system, log all the activities, review that log to make sure everything is ok, and convert that in a ruleset which allows just what you observed. This will not work where programs do things that were never observed. Just think about event handler scripts that never got triggered in your observation phase. In short, you will need someone who actually knows that SELinux stuff and has access to the machine in question. A security oriented person would hopefully never install SELinux rules on such a machine that he did not review or even create himself. Sounds like that servers admin :-) Arno > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Jiann-Ming Su > Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2007 2:27 PM > To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Nagios-users] nagios and selinux? > > What's the proper way to configure nagios and selinux to work > together?

At least it does so on all the systems I know. That has been demonstarted in this thread. Thus, there is no need for a work-around - you'd better check what is broken in your setup. > > This solves the problem of the /home problem, so I before other people > are running in the same problem it is better to add it in the distritbution. No, it's probably only you who has that problem. So it would be better to fix your problem and not create new ones... By the way - and I don't know the start script you quote from - the HOME variable probably needs to be exported before it takes effect.

I have some OpenVMS 7.3-2 Alpha at site and I wanna use Nagios to check some stuff like disk space, processes, batchjobs... i have written some procedures in DCL (Digital Command Language) which return a status and a comment line. The Nagios server OS RedHat4 Nagios v2.5 OpenVMS client OS v7.3-2 (soon 8.3) TCPIP 5.4 eco 6 SSL v1.2 The problem is, when I use SSH for the connection, the first line I get at the Nagios server is a blanc line and then the comments I put through. So at the Nagios console I don't see sh**. As far as I have checked and debugged the line comes from the SSH connection. Is there anyone who has implemented Nagios on OpenVMS with the SSH connection? Is there a way to say at the Nagios server that he has to ignore the first line he gets from the client? Now I am using NRPE but I would prefer to standardize arround SSH because we are now already using it for a various number of other things.

I have also been experiencing memory leaks, such that the kernel has been taking drastic action by killing processes starting with nagios and often including httpd, sshd etc. This all seems to happen at about 4:45 every morning. A reboot solves the problem and everything starts up again, but yesterday I decided to reboot using the single processor kernel (most of our nodes are dual processor, some are dual core as well) and there is no sign of a memory leak today !

Why? My check-command is like this: /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_mrtgtraf -F /usr/local/www/data/mrtg_switch/gatekeeper.log -a MAX -w 375000,375000 -c 500000,500000 -e 10 Output is this: Traffic UNKNOWN - Max.

You can just call /usr/bin/perl /path/to/your/plugin.pl as a check command to prevent the ePN usage for just that plugin/event handler. With nagios 3 you'll be able to enable/disable epn on a per script basis by using settings in the first few lines within the script Danny -- Q: Gentoo is too hard to install = http://www.cyberdelia.de and I feel like whining. = [EMAIL PROTECTED] A: Please see /dev/null. = (from the gentoo installer FAQ) = \o/ ------------------------------ Message: 18 Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2007 13:11:55 +0100 From: "Yolanda Santos" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Nagios-users] Different check_http? To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hi, I have Nagios 2.5 with plugins 1.4.5 I have an url and it can happend 2 possibilities: 1? If it's OK, it responds a binary file 2? If it's ERROR, it responds a html page, wich tell us that 'The service is not available' I want to check this, but... how can I do it? How can I check if a determinated string is in the binary file? Or.... can I change the check_http for giving me an ERROR when find an string? Normaly, if you check an url, and a string to expect in the content, if you find it, you have an OK answer. I want the opposite. If I find a string in the content, I want an ERROR answer... Is this possible? Thanks. Yolanda -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This should be in your plugin directory. With this you can negate the returncodes of your plugins; ie: Error becomes Ok, and vice versa. See the help output of negate below: negate (nagios-plugins 1.3.1) 1.5.2.2 The nagios plugins come with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. You may redistribute copies of the plugins under the terms of the GNU General Public License. For more information about these matters, see the file named COPYING. Copyright (c) 2002 Karl DeBisschop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Negates the status of a plugin (returns OK for CRITICAL, and vice-versa). Usage: negate [-t timeout] <definition of wrapped plugin> negate (-h | --help) for detailed help negate (-V | --version) for version information Options: -t, --timeout=INTEGER Terminate test if timeout limit is exceeded (default: 9) [keep this less than the plugin timeout to retain CRITICAL status] This plugin is a wrapper to take the output of another plugin and invert it. If the wrapped plugin returns STATE_OK, the wrapper will return STATE_CRITICAL. If the wrapped plugin returns STATE_CRITICAL, the wrapper will return STATE_OK.
