From first glance you may have several factors that may contribute to the issue you are having :

1) you may not have the nsca deamon running on the nagios server , to receive the sent data from the submitting server - to solve that look at the documentation of nsca and see about setting up the receiving end.

2) you may have the local linux firewall block the nsca port ( as it is a non standard port , you will need to open the access for it specifically) , remember it is using UDP and not TCP when opening the firewall.

3) do you have any extra security on the nagios server in the for of a third party security software ?

Hello

I'm just starting with nagios and im trying to learn everything at once.
At this moment im trying to get a remote windows 2008 server to be monitored, its on a different network so i've decided to use NSCA to monitor it via passive checks. However I get an error message at the remote server saying "Could not connect to: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5667 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it." And i've checked in the /usr/local/nagios/var/log/nagios.log and the /var/log/syslog.log files and they come up blank.

Im sure ive set up same encryption on both sides and im sure that they both use the same password... Any ideas how to start troubleshooting it? And since im /*new */to nagios, please explain thouroly :)
