Michael: What check are you using for the host check?
The line we're looking for is under your host definition and looks like so: check_command <command> Then, copy/paste the command definition for that command. Patrick asked the vital question, and you blew him off. The Quickstart page doesn't say what is in the default config, and most of us aren't going to go dig up the sample config from a source tarball to answer your question. Either provide the requested information, or don't expect much help.

Yeah, let me guess.... is your check_interval 120? At that point, it does a host check... what're you running from the commandline? Is it the same as the host check command? > > Here's the Service Status details for localhost (edited slightly to fit in > here somewhat neatly). This is from the web interface: <snip> These services are inconsequential. The host is down, not its services. --Rick P.S. My apologies if I seem snippy. It's a bad day. If you provide the info, I promise a speedy, polite response. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ 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
