  Hi All,

 Does anyone know off a capacity planning add-on for Nagios or are others
 using data from Nagios to perform capacity planning functions?

I am unaware of any add-on. You have to define all of your checks manually
and give threshholds that you have arbitrarily set.

Perhaps if you gave us a bit more information as to what exactly you're
trying to accomplish, one of us might be able to help give you a better
answer.

Right now, I'm using check_bl, and it works very well for a single IP, but
I'd like to run it once a day on a /28 block.

(Sure, I could make each IP check one-by-one, but I'm hoping that there is
another plugin that will let me use CIDR notation.)

[Nagios-users] Nagios equivalents to Servers Alive add-ons

2007-09-28 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
I'm starting to collect Nagios-equivalent solutions to these free Servers
Alive add-ons.

http://www.serversalive.com/salive/addons.asp

Some of the webapp (e.g. webinject) and event log (e.g. check_nt / nc_net /
etc) stuff is easy enough, but I'm looking for other F/OSS versions of, say,
the AV update checker and SMTP2POP3 plugins.  Anyone else have suggestions?

I used to use Servers Alive quite heavily until I found Nagios.  Hopefully
this thread will help others who are also making that transition.

 I'm guessing that SMTP2POP3 is equivalent to the

[Nagios-users] check commands not working on NagiosQL

2007-09-26 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
I'm having problems with NagiosQL reading certain check commands,
particularly check_nt and check_bl (check_ping, for example, works
just fine)

They're written right (exactly like I have on my regular Nagios cfg
files), but every time I to create a service check with it and try to
write the config, I get the following error:

Service check command 'check_bl' specified in service 'RBL_check' for
host 'Exchange-Server' not defined anywhere!

AND

Service check command 'check_nt' specified in service
'check_nt_process' for host 'Exchange-Server' not defined anywhere!

Odd, considering the the following checkcommands.cfg settings should work fine.

$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -s password -p 12489 -v PROCSTATE -l $ARG1$

AND

$USER1$/check_bl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -B zen.spamhaus.org bl.spamcop.net
dnsbl.ahbl.org dnsbl.njabl.org dnsbl.sorbs.net virbl.dnsbl.bit.nl
rbl.efnet.org phishing.rbl.msrbl.net

Both of these work from the command line, and again, they are defined
*exactly* the same way I have had working on the regular cfg files
(before I used the NagiosQL front end).  Also, all of the other check
commands (which are the exact same way -- /$USER1$/check_whatever
[parameters]) work.

Any suggestions?

[Nagios-users] distributed checks with NT client?

2007-09-26 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
Is there a way to do (I think it's called) passive checks with an NT server?

I have a centralized Nagios server racked off site, and I would like
to send a request to certain NT boxes and have NSClient++ (or
whatever) ping certain devices on the network.

I'm hoping that this is possible on NT, as I don't want to have to
build several more Nagios boxes just to have the distributed checking
that I need.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Log Management Tips?

2007-09-20 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
 Good grief, what on earth are you logging?  I'm monitoring over 1000
 hosts and 1600 services and my daily logs range between 600KB and
 1.5MB.  Can you post a snippet of your log (say a 15min span ) so we can
 get an idea of what it is logging?

This is just a test box, and I'm wondering if it had something to do
with the me goofing around with n2rrd or something like that.

Knowing that they should be this size (or anywhere close to this size)
is a good thing to know.  All that I'm monitoring (in my test
environment) is like 20 Exchange servers and some networking
equipment.  All in all, probably about 100 services.

Thanks for the reality check!

[Nagios-users] cannot restart Nagios using webgui on NagiosQL

2007-09-17 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
In the NagiosQL web GUI, I get the following error when I try to
'restart Nagios services' on my CentOS 4.5 box:

Nagios command file not found or no rights to write!

I suspect that this has to do with the nagios.pid or nagios.cmd
permissions and/or a wrong file path in
/var/www/html/nagiosQL/config/settings.ini or /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg,
but everything I've checked in this area seems ok.

Anything else I might check? Or should I check these things a bit more
carefully?

[Nagios-users] odd Nagios-check_smtp-Watchguard SOHO-MS Exchange problem

2007-08-03 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
I have an interesting Nagios question, and I'm wondering if it is a
problem with Nagios, Watchguard SOHO, or Exchange.

I am monitoring approximately 30 Exchange servers with no problem.
Since I cannot ping them (b/c they're behind firewalls), I typically
set the check_smtp plugin as the test to see if the host is alive.

All is well for all of them (running just about every firewall
imaginable, but mostly Cisco PIX), except for this Watchguard SOHO.
My friend said that he was experiencing problems with what he expected
was his firewall (Exchange queues and netstat showed nothing wrong),
and I suggested that he run Kiwisyslogger on the Exchange box to have
it view in real time what was going on.

He called me back and said that there were all sorts of bad packet
errors from my Nagios host.

e.g.

2007-08-03 09:58:21 Local0.Warning  192.168.1.254   IP: Packet discarded
from x.y.z.34 port 46302 to a.b.c.234 port 25 (TCP)(incorrect state)
@2007-08-03-10:58:28

I had him send me the syslog dump, and shortly after I killed Nagios,
mail started coming in ok and hasn't missed a beat. Looking through
the logs, I'm only hitting his Exchange server like once every couple
of minutes.

Any ideas on what the problem could be?  Unfortunately, I can't easily
replicate the problem, lest I risk disrupting their connectity again.

[Nagios-users] Nagios/n2rrd - missing template for ping.t

2007-07-30 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
On CentOS 4.5, I have Cacti and Nagios installed.  I'm trying to
glue them together with a program called n2rdd but am having a
problem that I wondering is possibly Nagios-related.

When I run tail /var/log/nagios/rra/n2rrd.log, I see lots of this
sort of thing:

server01: Missing template for server01 service check_ping
/etc/n2rrd/templates/rra/ping.t

I have a ping.t template in that file path, but it's still not
working. In fact, I did one exactly like the example in the
instructions (step 7, example 1:
http://n2rrd.diglinks.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/InstallationGuide) and
then I copied that icmp.t template to ping.t

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_ping vs check_icmp?

2007-07-30 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
 So, if you don't mind installing the plugin setuid root, I'd recommend
 using check_icmp.

Forgive my ignorance, but where can I find this?

(I googled for setuid root nagios check_icmp but nothing jumped out at me)

A few questions about your setup.

How many services in all are you checking? And how often are you polling 
these services?

Define freaking out, please.  Is it slow?  Or is it just taking 
forever to run your various checks?

 You can take a look at below plugin and further rework if you know perl:

Very cool, thank you, William. I don't know Perl, but this looks like 
the perfect opportunity to learn.

 As this is commercial service you're planning I gather and its
 too specialized a request, I'd not do it free as new additional

 cost $150-$200 i.e. 1-2 hours of my time).

No, not a commercial service, a free service I only offer to certain 
qualifying nonprofits (i.e. any nonprofit I deem as (a) cool, (b) not 
too clingy on my free services).  I already provide them Mailman 
listserv services, jabber services, domain parking, and unlimited email 
forwarding (to say a gmail account or something).  (I'd provide the 
hosting, but I don't want to have to deal with the support issues).

I'd like to provide them a backup when, say, their Small Business Server 
2003 box goes down (which it will), and then provide them some sort of 
email scrubbing (e.g. only accept known good AD email addresses, 
filter for viruses, tag spam) while they're down.  But I do *not* want 
to be the primary MX and have to deal with their support issues (as I'm 
doing this for free).

[Nagios-users] Nagios stopped alerting (and not sure why)

2007-07-27 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
In some way, shape, or form, Nagios is not alerting me about down
hosts. I suspect that someone toggled something in the
http://box/nagios web GUI, but I looked around and don't see anything
that could have changed.

The cfg files are the same as I left them.

Any ideas on what might have changed?

 Why would you need to check this though?

I'm thinking of providing a service of using Postfix to provide MX

record.  I want to be a backup, not the main gateway for a company's
email.

Also, when people have problems, this would let me look (on one

[Nagios-users] question on nagios-rrdtool-cacti process

2007-07-25 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
I'm trying to wrap my mind around how Nagios and Cacti integrate
(or, more specifically, how I can pipe Nagios output to rrdtool and
then have Cacti poll that rrd database). Both Nagios and Cacti are
installed ok, and now I'm trying to get n2rrd properly installed and
gluing together the two programs.

I've (I think) followed all of these instructions ok

http://n2rrd.diglinks.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/InstallationGuide

--n2rrd is unpacked to /etc/n2rrd ok
--nagios cfg files are edited properly
--made a /path/to/templates/service.t file (icmp.t to be exact)
--can reload nagios ok (with no errors)

...but now what?

I don't see any nagios logs being generated (step 14 of the HOWTO
URL), and I'm not sure where exactly these get generated (or how to
tell).

I'm assuming that nrd2graph doesn't have to be installed b/c that is
what Cacti will properly take care of?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nagios-users] change control on Nagios / Cacti servers

2007-07-19 Thread Rogelio Bastardo

I'm looking for some sort of change control  solution. On several
Cacti/Nagios servers, I would like to take a snapshot of what I did, back it
up, and if something changes, run something that shows me what files /
permissions were changed since I last worked on the server.

If it were just me, then I would just make copies of the files.  But since
there are other people in there doing all sorts of weird configs, I want to
make sure that I document what they did since I last logged in.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Nagios-users] Reverse checks possible?

2007-07-19 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
  Sure. See the negate plugin.

Alright, I finally figured it out.

Here, for what it is worth, is a reverse check for SMTP

define command{
command_namecheck_reverse_smtp
command_line$USER1$/negate
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_smtp -H $HOSTADDRESS$
}

define service{
use local-service
host_name  mail.yourDomain.com
service_description  SMTP_reverse_check
check_command check_reverse_smtp
}

Of course, it goes without saying, but your mileage may vary according
to how your cfg files are laid out.

Thanks, Israel, Demetri, and Patrick. I really appreciate your help!

Re: [Nagios-users] using Nagios to detect rogue DHCP servers?

2007-07-10 Thread Rogelio Bastardo



requires a whole new plugin written from scratch, I haven't seen a
tcpdump like plugin. Therefore much more difficult and more time
required, as well as more computationally intensive to watch all traffic
for another dhcpoffer, when actually you'll get the same result.




What about writing a custom plugin that uses this GPL prog to return the
warning/critical/ok/pending values?

https://roguedetect.bountysource.com/


From the website:


Rogue Detect sends DHCPDISCOVER packets to the network and listens for
DHCPservers to respond and checks responses against authorized dhcp
servers.
It’s written in Perl. By default it supports sending reports to syslog,
email, standard out or a customer script of your chosing. Each reporting
method has it’s own independent reporting level.

Their wiki is here:  https://roguedetect.bountysource.com/wiki

notes at the bottom of the wiki:

Sending a DHCPDISCOVER packet causes any DHCPSERVERS listning to allocate
an IP address for a few seconds, while they wait for the detector to
ACKtheir offer. Since we never do send an
ACK, the IP is not allocated to us. Hence, it should be ok to run this on
the network.. but do so at your OWN RISK!!

This package is nice in that you do not have to have a clear view of the
network to run it (ie, it works behind a switch). You DO have to be within
broadcast range, which usually means on the same subnet as the DHCP server.
In some cases scaning port 68 (67?) on every machine may be the better
answer to finding dhcp servers, but with this program, as apposed to a
passive one like snort, you do not have to be able to see traffic not
destined for you.

Re: [Nagios-users] host down (when it's not really)

2007-07-09 Thread Rogelio Bastardo


Yeah.  Assuming you're using the default check-host-alive command, which
pings hosts, that obviously won't work if you can't ever ping the host.

You'll need to define a new check command that *can* determine if the host
is up or down.



Perfect.  Since they're Exchange servers, I changed a variable in my define
host section.

#was
#   check_command   check-host-alive ; Default command

#is now
   check_command   check_smtp

[Nagios-users] host down (when it's not really)

I am checking various mail servers for only two things:
(1) smtp works (check_smtp)
(2) are they black listed (check_spamcop)

The hosts appear down due to Nagios trying to ping them.  Inbound IMCP is
obviously not allowed on these types of hosts.

How can I turn off the ping option and only check for those two things?

Again, that's because your service checks are OK, but you have a host

Fix your host check and it'll turn green.

Change that value, right?

[Nagios-users] question on how NSClient++ works

2007-07-05 Thread Rogelio Bastardo

I'm reading through the NSClient++ documentation
http://trac.nakednuns.org/nscp/wiki/Documentation

but I don't quite understand how the plugins work.  The documentation lists

command[my_command]=/some/executable
my_command=/some/executable


Are there some Windows executable plugins that I need?  In other words,
check_nrpe on the server queries this NSClient++ plugin, and then what does
it do?

[Nagios-users] nrpe vs snmp resources

2007-07-02 Thread Rogelio Bastardo
I remember a while back seeing a well-written NRPE vs SNMP webpage 
(that was incredibly detailed).

I've googled for a while, and can't seem to refind it.

If anyone has a good one, do share!

thx

[Nagios-users] best place to put NSClient++ on a Windows server?

2007-07-02 Thread Rogelio Bastardo

I recently downloaded the NSClient++ plugin so that I could monitor my NT
servers using Nagios.
In the instructions (http://trac.nakednuns.org/nscp/wiki/Documentation), it
says to install it via the command line (nsclient++.exe /install).  I do
that, it says that it's finished, so I'm assuming that the NSC.ini file I
have to edit is the one I have in my c:\temp\ dir.

Any suggestions on where the best place to put this is on a Windows server?

Re: [Nagios-users] nrpe vs snmp resources

2007-07-02 Thread Rogelio Bastardo


Basically you can do everything with SNMP. With nearly all devices. But I
never have seen a router with nrpe installed.






While knew that SNMP did just about everything that NRPE did, but I thought
that there might be a couple of things NRPE did independent of SNMP.  If I
understand everything correctly, what NRPE does differently (better?) is
just make some of these configs a bit easier?

Hi Rahul,

Please tell us more about your environment.

But before you do that, perhaps take a look at this doc:

Re: [Nagios-users] cgi misconfiguration? {Disarmed} {Fraud?}

2007-06-29 Thread Rogelio Bastardo


Did you look in your web server error log? I don't know what version of


CentOS you are running but do you have SELinux enabled? It might be

complaining about that in error_log.



This is the only error_log file I found while searching (locate
error_log), but it doesn't look Apache-related.

Thank you, Marc. The problem actually turned out to be a problem with
SELinux running.

For those who don't know how to turn this off (it's enabled by default on
CentOS)

vim /etc/selinux/config


set SELINUX=disabled (instead of enabled)

[Nagios-users] cgi misconfiguration?

2007-06-28 Thread Rogelio Bastardo

I installed Nagios 2.9 via yum on CentOS.
The web page displays correctly (e.g. http://myServer/nagios), but I get the
following error when I hit anything related to the CGI. Any suggestions as
to what I didn't configure properly?
