hi all I´m really desesperate because I dont know which other config file I should look.
My mail server (postfix) is working because if I run $> ps aux | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] I get a mail. I have this two files: [EMAIL PROTECTED] nagios]# cat contacts.cfg define contact{ contact_name pablo alias pablo service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period 24x7 #service_notification_options c #host_notification_options d service_notification_options w,u,c,r host_notification_options d,u,r service_notification_commands notify-by-email host_notification_commands host-notify-by-email email [EMAIL PROTECTED] } ***************************** ***************************** [EMAIL PROTECTED] nagios]# cat contactgroups.cfg define contactgroup{ contactgroup_name sysadmins alias sysadmins members pablo } both included on nagios.cfg [EMAIL PROTECTED] nagios]# cat /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg | grep contact # groups, contacts, contact groups, services, etc. I guess it would # separate from host and contact definitions... cfg_file=/etc/nagios/contactgroups.cfg cfg_file=/etc/nagios/contacts.cfg # host/contact/service configuration files. Setting this to 60 means I have also verified that the "host-notify-by-email" and "notify-by-email" commands that are defined on commands.cfg work if I run them on a terminal. and I am using this service and host templates: define host{ name generic-host-gen notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 register 0 contact_groups sysadmins check_command check-host-alive normal_check_interval 3 max_check_attempts 3 notification_interval 0 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,u } define service{ name servicio-generico-gen normal_check_interval 3 retry_check_interval 5 max_check_attempts 3 notification_interval 0 notification_period 24x7 check_period 24x7 notification_options c active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 0 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 0 check_freshness 0 notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 register 0 contact_groups sysadmins } everything on the web interface seems to work and I havent found any error related to mail on logs but I can´t get mail notifications when a service or host fails. ¿¿any clue about what I´m doing wrong?? many thanks in advance for any help and sorry for a so long mail :) Pablo -- Pablo Escobar Lopez Head of Infrastructure & IT Support Bioinformatics Department Centro de Investigación Príncipe Felipe (CIPF) Tfn: (34) 96 328 96 80 ext: 1004 http://bioinfo.cipf.es ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
