Hi, all! We are monitoring an external FTP server that is not in our control but that we depend on for a certain part of our business.
After the FTP service failed for a short period of time on Saturday, the host was flagged "down" and has not come up since. I just found out that the other admin blocks ICMP. The FTP server works fine, though. I wonder if they have "misterious" problems with customers that have an MTU slightly less than 1500 somewhere in their path ;-)) Is there a way to tell Nagios not to bother checking if a host is alive with ICMP echo and just continue checking the service instead?
