HI Richard, thank you for comment.
comunity string I set up as for machines I have it works OK. Comunity string is same, and let say it is "niceday" but it is same on all machines I have plan to monitor. I tried all, but it I am really stuck, same configuration ( which I btw just copy /paste to machines behind firewal ) works corretly on machines which are direct accessable from nagios server. I have port 161 open. Thank you all for comment, I need to hear your experiences regarding this Kind regards, Arlytex 2009/8/6 Richard Remington <[email protected]>: > Hi Arlytex, > > Is it possible that the SNMP password (community string) is not 'public' on > your Windows 2003 servers that are behind the firewall?
