I tried check_ping with -6 option for ipv6 host and find it working with my 
existing Nagios 
(un-patched one).

I am not sure about the need of patching Nagios for ipv6 (unless i use ipv6 
address for host definition)

Also, any insight on nsca and nrpe support for ipv6?

Thank you
Nair

I have Nagios 3.0.x configured to nsca and nrpe checks. I am planning get few 
IPv6 only hosts. 
And i use host file or dns for ipv6 host resolution.

I could see few pathes with respect to nsca and nrpe for ipv6 support. And i 
could see some 
ipv4 hosts having issuing communicating once its patched.

Any advice on same? Also do i need to patch nagioa for ipv6 support?

Thanks in advance.

Nair.
