[Nagios-users] Monitoring Windows Clients

2008-08-15 Thread Jeff Marble
My Solaris clients all work great but a few of the windows clients die each day.

I have installed and configured nsclient from MikeM on 15 Windows
servers.  6-8 times each day, the nsclient++ service will die with no
information in the NSC.log file.

I am using nsclient, not nrpe.  No preference here, just what was the
most straight forward for a Solaris guy to monitor a few windows
servers.

I enabled the recommended modules in the instructions and monitory cpu
load, disk space, a process and memory usage in the NSC.ini file.
These work fine.  I have since commented out NRPEListener, SysTray,
CheckEvenLog and CheckHelpers.  Remaining is FileLogger, CheckSystem,
CheckDisk, and NSClientListener.  I only allow the nagios host to
connect on port 12489.  I bind to one NIC on the windows server.
Debug is turned on.


I am a newbie to monitoring windows clients.  Please point me in the
right direction. I suspect I have configured something wrong because I
assume many others are also using NSCLient++.I have googled, read
blogs, and read the list.

At this point, I will attempt to switch to NRPE and see if that makes
a difference.  Unless there is a fix or a better option.

Thank you,
Jeff

OR try NC_Net (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net)

NC_NEt, OpMon, NSCLinet(http://nsclient.ready2run.nl/),NSClient++
All Use check_NT and you should be able to easily interchange between them.
(all Window  client side configuring) provided you are using the Official
Check_nt Plugin.

NC_Net offers an array of additional commands as well as Passive checks via
NSCA
instead of NRPE it has its own RUNSCRIPT command.  these and other addtional
commads are availible by compilling check_nc_net.c instead of Check_nt.c
