Hi,

I seem to be getting a bit further with my slave install.

However it copies the files to the slave server over SCP fine and then I run 
the install_slave on the slave as root and get the error below:


[r...@mon1 ~]# cd /usr/local/nagios/tmp && ./install_slave
Can't access neither configuration file 
/usr/local/nagios/nmis/bin/../conf/nmis.conf, nor /etc/nmis/nmis.conf

I'm not using NMIS and I believe it isn't enabled on my master.

Regards,

Alex

First of all normally Opsview will be running as a user other than root, most 
likely user “nagios”.
So you should be trying to do something like this:
r...@opsview-demo:~# ssh [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> 
uname –a

You will need to know the nagios user password to copy.
User nagios will also need a ssh key generated
Here is a good link describing setup of certificated based ssh:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/152

Basically you
Create the key
nag...@opsview-demo:~# ssh-keygen -t rsa
Copy the key
nag...@opsview-demo:~# ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>

Then you should be able to run commands without a password as user nagios:
nag...@opsview-demo:~# ssh 131.125.78.45<mailto:[email protected]> ls -la

Hope this helps.

Subject: [opsview-users] Slave setup errors.

Hi every one.

I been trying from long to make slave work.I installed Ubunto hardy as a master 
and ubunto hardy as slave opsview on remote.I installed opsview repository and 
every thing went fine.But I am having permission errors doing ssh from master 
to slave.

When I ssh fro master using
r...@opsview-demo:~# ssh 131.125.78.45 ls -l 
[email protected]'s<mailto:[email protected]'s> password:when I put the 
password which is for opsview.i get error.
Permission denied, please try again.

I cant copy keys and files from master to slave either.

scp /usr/local/nagios/installer/check_reqs
> /usr/local/nagios/bin/profile 131.125.78.45:
>
> scp: ./check_reqs: Permission denied
>
> scp: ./profile: Permission denied



I presume permission problem is related to ssh config or something.Actually I 
am not expert with linux if some one could help me out fixing this problem I 
bumped my head too much fixing this problem but all vain..

Thanks for any reponses.
