Re: [Nagios-users] Hey I was wondering about the check_ping from the newest stable plugins.
JFTR (we clarified this on IRC): * Eliezer Croitoru elie...@ngtech.co.il [2013-08-09 17:23]: which is a bit weird why is it using ping6 for a simple ping by default? Hos is the check_ping recognises that there is a need for ping6 ?? the host dosn't even has ipv6 connectivity.. There's no sensible way to detect the availability of IPv6. The plugin could auto-fallback to IPv4 if IPv6 fails, but so far users are expected to simply add the -4 flag in IPv4-only environments (or to use check_icmp).

[Nagios-users] ANNOUNCE: NSCA-ng 1.1
Today, I released NSCA-ng 1.1. Debian packages and the source tarball can be downloaded from: https://www.nsca-ng.org/ NSCA-ng is a drop-in replacement for NSCA that allows for submitting passive check results, downtimes, and many other commands to Nagios. It uses TLS encryption and shared-secret authentication with per-client passwords, as well as fine-grained authorization control. Version 1.1 is a minor release that adds some improvements and fixes, including the following: - Add chroot(2) support to the server. - Let the server accept `hosts' patterns in `authorize' sections. They're syntactic sugar for allowing host checks to be submitted (analogous to the `services' patterns for service check submissions). - Let the client ignore empty input lines. This fixes some corner cases where NSCA-ng's client didn't accept the same input as the client provided with the original NSCA package. - Add the `-e' client option, which allows for specifying a delimiter to use instead of the ASCII ETB character for separating check results. - Let the `invoke_check' script (provided in the `contrib' directory of the source tarball) survive plugin return codes other than zero. This should make the script slightly more useful :-) Thanks go to Stuart Henderson for adding the chroot(2) support, to Mirko Tasler for spotting the bug in the `invoke_check' script, and to everyone else who provided feedback.

[Nagios-users] ANNOUNCE: NSCA-ng 1.0
Today, I released NSCA-ng 1.0. Debian packages and the source tarball can be downloaded from: https://www.nsca-ng.org/ As far as I can tell, it works very well, and it has all the features I wanted the 1.0 release to have. The client features include: * Accepts all input, command line arguments, and configuration files accepted by the send_nsca binary provided with the original NSCA package. * Supports submission of arbitrary Nagios commands (not just check results) of arbitrary size. That is, NSCA-ng could be used to submit downtimes or acknowledgements, for example. * Optional random delay before the client connects to the server. * Messages can optionally be sent to syslog(3). * Should run on any non-ancient Unix-like system. The server features include: * TLS encryption and shared-secret authentication with client-specific passwords. * Fine-grained authorization control. * Very good performance and scalability. The next step will be to tackle some of my wish list items: https://www.nsca-ng.org/documentation/todo.html If you happen to be interested in any of those (or other features), I'd be happy about any feedback you may have.

Re: [Nagios-users] Problem sending passive results using NSCA with multi-line output
* Esteban Monge este...@nuevaeralatam.com [2013-02-16 15:00]: This looks like you're using a send_nsca version 2.9, where multiple check results were seperated using newlines. In that case, you'll have to replace each newline character within multi-line output with the literal string '\n'. With NSCA = 2.9, multiple check results are seperated using ASCII ETB characters (octal value: 27) instead of newlines, and multi-line output can be piped into send_nsca as-is. (Actually, converting the newline characters into '\n' will no longer work with NSCA = 2.9.) I have one situation with both versions: NSCA 2.9 in clients and NSCA 2.9 in server.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_http results - interpreting error messages.
* Giles Coochey gi...@coochey.net [2011-11-02 09:09]: I am monitoring a website, and I sometimes get two types of error: One is: CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds and the other is: HTTP CRITICAL - No data received from host What is the difference between the two errors? Is it the case that the HTTP CRITICAL error connected to the server via TCP, but didn't get a page and that the Socket timeout error didn't even establish the TCP connection? Yes, that's the difference.

Re: [Nagios-users] How to find active check status for a service?
* Paul M. Dubuc w...@paul.dubuc.org [2010-07-15 17:08]: Is there some programmatic way to find out whether or not active checks are enabled or disabled for a service in Nagios. We have a requirement for an audit to provide notifications for certain critical services that may have their active checks disabled so they aren't left that way any longer than necessary. You could parse the status file, see ftp://ftp.in-berlin.de/pub/users/weiss/nagios/tools/disabled-notifications for an example.

Re: [Nagios-users] Checking DHCP
* Cosmin Neagu cosmin.ne...@omnilogic.ro [2010-07-08 10:12]: So from what i see on the server: DHCPD: DHCPDISCOVER received from client 0050.56a1.4fbf through relay 192.168.53.250 DHCPD: Seeing if there is an internally specified pool class DHCPD: there is no address pool for 192.168.53.250 Why can't you simply add an entry for 192.168.53.250 to the DHCP server configuration? I thing that nagios sets the relay agent ip address in dhcp header to be the ip address of the interface from where the dhcpdiscover is sent. Is there any posibilities to control this, i mean to put in that header whatever ip address i want for dhcp relay agent? No, because the server uses that IP address for the reply. That is, if you fake the field in question (giaddr), you won't get a response. Otherwise, i thing nagios cand only monitor dhcp servers on the same lan/subnet. check_dhcp's -u option works just fine if the server is configured appropriately. (And of course, you could use a real DHCP relay agent instead of check_dhcp's -u option.) Holger -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
