Have you checked the firewall settings in 2008? If they have been enabled then they will block the nsclient++ exe from communicating on the network unless you tell the firewall to let nsclient++ traffic through. That's the next thing I would check.

Well, just started with Nagios, and I am using one of the windows.cfg templates with NSClient++ installed on the Windows Server 2008x64 boxes. >If you're using check_nt or one of its substitute (NC_Net has >check_nc_net, NSClient++ may have one too) make sure the proper service >is installed and running on the Windows server. Try restarting the >service if it's already running. Make sure the configuration is good >(especially port and password). I am using check_nt and the port/pass is correct for WinXP machines, but the same ini on the 2008 machines doesn't work. Given Nagios suggests a socket error, I suspect it is probably some bug in the x64 client on the 2008 machines... In the meantime, since I am just starting out, I have been reading up on snmp as that is how I am preferring to do my monitoring rather than have to install any applications. jlc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
