Hey daniel!
Wow, this really showed my error i think. I cant connect either on
localhost:5667 nor from the server via telnet 5667...
Could i ask you if you could walk me through how to troubleshoot this? That
would really make my day :)
yes, i use xinetd
this is the config file :
# description: NSCA (Nagios Service Check Acceptor)
service nsca
{
flags = REUSE
type = UNLISTED
port = 5667
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = nagiosadmin
group = nagios
server = /usr/sbin/nsca
server_args = -c /etc/nsca.cfg .inetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
only_from = 127.0.0.1 *.*.*.*
}
im a total tool coming to this, what should i change? :)
