Re: [Nagios-users] Installing and configuring nexsm with nagiosxi

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Moses,

I suggest you contact the author if it is no more being supported. He will
be able to point you in the right direction. I installed NEXSM years ago,
took a great deal to get it working. You can either invest that much time or
contact the author and he may be able to assist

Re: [Nagios-users] monitoring bandwidth on Motorola Canopy SM using nagiosxi switch wizard

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Moses,

Can you confirm the following

1). What version of SNMP are your SM lite and SM normal running? Is that the
same version Nagiosxi is using?
2). Do you have network access to your SM lite and SM normal devices
3). Using regular snmp i.e. snmpget or snmpwalk - can you access these
devices?

Alex

Nagios has tons and tons of plugins that can monitor virtually any service -
what exactly do you want to monitor, a service, connection to a port, what?
Let us know and we can help

Re: [Nagios-users] Internal Server Error Occuring when trying to access Nagios on the browser

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Ifeanyi,

The issue points to a permission issue - how did you install nagios? Did you
compile it or you used a package manager to install. What environment are
you using? Redhat - Centos? What version of nagios did you install/

[Nagios-users] NRPE on macs

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Guys,

Quick question - is NRPE bi-directional or uni-directional. By that, I mean
when NRPE is installed on a client - does it push it output to the nagios
server or does nagios pull the results from the client?

Cheers,
Alex

Re: [Nagios-users] Tomcat Monitoring?

Hi Emmanuel,

For memory, process utilization you can easily do that. Are you running a
specific web app on Tomcat? If that is the case, you need to build the log
and reporting in the app.

Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP configuration

Hi Dayo,

I have some questions in order to help you

1. Is your switch an ubuntu server?
2. Is the SNMP service enabled and running on your switch?
3. What is the community string on your switch?
4. Is your nagios server allowed SNMP access to your switch?

Regards,
Alex Dehaini

[Nagios-users] Can nagios replace whatsup

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Guys,

My company uses nagios and whatsup together. Nagios helps us to monitor
services and send out notifications and whatsup does live network
monitoring. Recently, my supervisor wants me to scrap whatsup for nagios. I
am not very comfortable with his decision. What's up is a spot-check tool.

Both products views are different. Our nagios server checks over 800 hosts
and services while whatsup checks less than 80 devices.

Is there a way to configure nagios to be a spot check tool? What do you guys
suggest?

I will not mind getting an open-source graphical spot-check tool like
whatsup

Re: [Nagios-users] Using both NTLM and htpasswd file authentication for NAGIOS web interface

[Alex Dehaini]

You want to send this to the nagios developer mailing list. Seems you are
spoiling your users - why can't they all authenticate from one source -
apache?

Alex

Re: [Nagios-users] Using both NTLM and htpasswd file authentication for NAGIOS web interface

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Tunde,

I have never tried this before but I will suggest you try your auth systems
one at a time to know they are working before implementing them.

Nagios uses apache http authentication by default so you should not have any
issues with this. Or maybe I am missing something, please correct if I am.

Never tried NTLM authentication with nagios so I can't help in that area but
you can look at this link

http://www.itefix.no/i2/node/11683

I am sure there are pam or kerberos modules that can talk to a dbase like
ldap or AD.

Regards,
Alex

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios deployment planning

[Alex Dehaini]

Alot of things count when deploying nagios. Take for instance - if you run
your service check every 5 minutes, it is not the same when you run it every
30 seconds.

So, throw some more light and we might be able to help. I run about 1000
services with 300 hosts. I use a P4 2.0 Ghz with 2 gb of ram. So far, nagios
can take the load. I check services every 90 seconds.

[Nagios-users] Service Checks

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Guys,

I have about 200 hosts and 400 services. My sys spec is about P4 2.4 Ghz and
2Gb of RAM. I want to check each service every 20 seconds and update the CGI
interface. Any clues how I can achieve this?

Re: [Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

I have been using special characters since day 1 and it has always worked, I
have had no issues with it. There is no reason why I use it expect say for
naming convention.

I changed s...@procreditadjangote to smprocreditadjangote and nothing changed
- so I don't think that is the problem. (I might be wrong)

Re: [Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

Deborah,

Here is the output of /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg on my server

Total Warnings: 0
Total Errors:   0

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the pre-flight
check

I have reloaded nagios with hostgroup.cfg using

/etc/init.d/nagios reload

I still don't understand what is happening.

Thanks though

Re: [Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

Yes, I do have a hostgroup.cfg file. The issue is, when I add a new host or
service - it doesn't show up in the cgi interface but nagios has seen it. My
entries in hostgroup.cfg file are working, however - since nagios do not see
these new hosts and services, they can't be displayed under the hostgroup.

I wish there was somewhere I could check investigate this. Here is a snippet
from my hostgroup.cfg file

define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name  CANTOMENTS
alias   SITE-CANTOMENTS
members core,s...@procreditadjangote,DNS1,*ap...@cantoments
,s...@cantoments,swi...@cantoments*
}


define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name  GIX
alias   GIX
members core,bhmas...@gix,bhsl...@kokomlemle2gix,rou...@gix
}


define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name  GT
alias   GT
members core2gt,bhmas...@koko2gt,bhsl...@gt2koko
}

I added new hosts ap...@cantoments,s...@cantoments and swi...@cantoments and
their corresponding services. However, the cgi web interface does not show
them - that is the issue.

Hosts core and DNS1 are old entries and they come up alright under the
hostgroup but the others I added recently are not showing. Here is an image
of what I am talking about

Re: [Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

Asam,

I have been using nagios for over 2 years now, never had any problem with
it. Until now, I have noticed my nagios server is a bit sluggish. A couple
of days ago, I added a host and a couple of services to it - nagios saw it
and later said the host wasn't added. I am having the similar situation now.

I don't add my host directly to host.cfg and services directly to
services.cfg. I created folders and include the folder directories in
nagios.cfg. So, the host and services have been added, I add each host in
it's own file - why nagios is not seeing it is the problem.

Here is the host config - it is in a file called smcantoments.cfg under
/usr/local/nagios/etc/radios/

define host{
use aps
host_name   s...@cantoments
alias   SM at Cantoments
address 10.217.226.168
parents ap...@baatsona2
}

Here is the service config - it is in a file called
smcantoments-services.cfg under /usr/local/nagios/etc/allservices

define service{
use aps
host_name   s...@cantoments
service_description PING
check_command   check_ping!200.0,20%!600.0,60%
}

In, hostgroup.cfg, I added the following entry

define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name  CANTOMENTS
alias   SITE-CANTOMENTS
members ap...@cantoments,s...@cantoments,swi...@cantoments
}

So, what is the problem?

Re: [Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg gives no
errors

I added the host and services to the host.cfg and service.cfg files. I added
a group to the hostgroup file and added the hosts to the hostgroup file. I
reloaded nagios

In the cgi view, I see the hostgroup but it says there are no host or
services added to it even after adding the host and service.

[Nagios-users] Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Guys,

I just defined a hostgroup and added members to it. I have also added each
host and their services. I checked nagios for any errors and there are none.
When I restart nagios, I can see the hostgroup alright but there are no
host/services under it. I get this error

SITE-CANTOMENTS 
(CANTOMENTS
)  No matching hosts  No matching services
Any ideas?

Re: [Nagios-users] host port setting

[Alex Dehaini]

I will advice you configure the nrpe daemon on the remote host to listen on
which ever port you choose. After that, restart nagios on the monitoring
host and use the plugin in the libexec directory to see if you can still
talk to the remote server.

To answer your question, I do not know of any directive to change the port
number for nrpe on nagios.

Perhaps it is harded coded in the plugin, perhaps not, you will only know
after testing it.

Re: [Nagios-users] host port setting

[Alex Dehaini]

U have to explain your setup pretty well before I can advice.

For example, a web server listens on port 80. A web browser connects to the
web server on port 80 before communication can take place.

How is your setup like?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios and SELinux issue

There should be an option in Selinux to allow certain network services run.
Try and narrow your search around that area.

You have to hit the Selinux docs to help. I usually just disable Selinux.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitor 2nd mail server behind natted router

[Alex Dehaini]

The issue is the mail router is natted to only one local IP.

Re: [Nagios-users] Monitor 2nd mail server behind natted router

[Alex Dehaini]

Nagios is on a public IP, the router is on a public IP and the two servers
are on local IPs. Here is the connection

*mail1*(localIP) 
  - *MailRouter*(PublicIP) - Switch
--- (*Nagios*)(PublicIP)
*mail2* (localIP) 

If the two servers have the same local IP, there will be IP conflict.
NSClient basically sends info from the server to nagios. I can do that for
one mail server, I wonder if I can do that for the sendcond one.

Thanks,
Lex

[Nagios-users] Monitor 2nd mail server behind natted router

[Alex Dehaini]

Hi Guys,

Our email server is currently behind a cisco router. The server is running a
local IP and the router is on a public IP. I installed NSClient and use the
check_nt plugin to monitor the email server. Here is my host file

define host{
use dns-servers
host_name   mailserver
alias   mailserver
address 41.211.31.43
}

I have a backup email server behind the same router running a local IP. I
was wondering how I can monitor it. Any ideas?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios reporting

[Alex Dehaini]

thanks,

I was looking at a tool that can tell me the number of downtimes a host or
service had in a day, week, month or year. This will help when giving
clients discounts.

Nagios availability report doesn't tell you the number of downtimes a host
or service had in a day or a specific period. If ndoutils was stable, I
could put nagios status or log files in mysql and run the reports from
there.

what do you think?

[Nagios-users] Nagios reporting

Hi Guys,

Are there extra plugins or any open source or paid software that can
generate nagios reports and display them in a friendly manner?

Basically the mapping feature - nagios does the rest, I am happy with nagios
but nagios maps arecrap. Nagvis allows you to display hosts and services
graphically.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagvis alternatives

[Alex Dehaini]

thanks mate, good overview. I have had the same issues with nagvis, it
crashing every now and then; ndo2db issues. I will give nexsm a try. Please
be expecting emails from me about nexsm, lol.

Re: [Nagios-users] CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 seconds.

[Alex Dehaini]

Why not drop this rule temporarily and test. If it works, then you know for
sure it is your firewall. If you need help with your iptables, visit their
site or throw this question to their mailing list.

Alternatively, you could seek commercial support.

You need to give us more information my friend. Show us the check_backuppc

Re: [Nagios-users] CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 seconds.

[Alex Dehaini]

once you login with ssh and run them at the command line that is fine. The
issue now is nagios times out when connecting to these servers. Any
firewalls?

[Alex Dehaini]

Show use the command you are using?

Re: [Nagios-users] how to check smtps, pop3s, imaps, ldpas withy nrpe ?

[Alex Dehaini]

Your smtp server and your ftp server, are they different from your pop and
imap server?

Your imaps and pop3s are connected locally i.e. on the nagios server if I am
correct? Your ftp and smtp are not. Is this correct?

Re: [Nagios-users] how to check smtps, pop3s, imaps, ldpas withy nrpe ?

[Alex Dehaini]

Connect to the host locally and telnet on each of the ports that are opened.
Verify if you have a firewall running that are filtering access to the
machine in anyway.

telnet localhost 25 - if that works

Connect another machine to the same switch and telnet ip.addr.xx.xx 25 and
see if you can connect

If these work, there is no reason why nagios plugins shouldn't work

Re: [Nagios-users] [Nagiosplug-help] IPsec/racoon monitoring plugin

[Alex Dehaini]

If it listens on a port, use check_udp to listen on port 4500.

I don't understand your second question. You can create a VPN tunnel using
two routers or VPN apps like openvpn or freeswan running unix/linux.
Alternatively, you can use DNAT and send all port 80 requests to your nagios
server.

Nagios should run without an ntp server, just make sure that the time on the

Re: [Nagios-users] schedule check problem

Nagios reads the time on the server, is your server getting time from an ntp
server?

[Alex Dehaini]

can you talk to this daemon using a certain tcp or udp port?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Plugin for lighttpd

[Alex Dehaini]

all web servers listen on port 80, so you can use check_tcp. What exactly do
you want to monitor?

Re: [Nagios-users] Carte OSA

[Alex Dehaini]

it depends what service you want to check on the mainframe. nagios uses snmp
and plugins to get info from devices. So if your OSA mainframe understands
and speaks snmp, nagios can read from it.
