Re: [Nagios-users] NC_Net.EventLog.Receiving error codes.Could I receive more info from the EventLog?

Thanks. You gave me some valious point to continue my work. I was not
using the last version of NC_Net. I will try EVENTLOG_NEW and I will
try to implement any of the solutions that you have commented. I will
post any result I get.

 WMI should solve this problem for you.

 First off, make sure your using the current version of NC_NEt 4.1a and you
 would have access to a more optimized event log check called eventlog_new

 The Output is the same, thus it does not give what your are looking for.
 (but it may be more optimized than the WMI You would need to test this.)  if
 it is a quicker test, I recomend using it and setting up event handlers or
 manually running check_nt using WMI to get the file name.  note this assumes
 that you normally do not get an alert , so you would want the checking to
 induce the least load.

 If you know the names of the files you can setup seperate checks using the
 REGEXP of the EVENTLOG_NEw and this would serve as a workaround.

 If your looking for the files being modified. FILEAGE may be a good
 workaround.

 you should be able to setup an event handler that takes the EVENTID reported
 by EVENTLOG check and runs a WMICAT, querry the WMI (Windows Managment
 interface) for the Event Log Message.
 CLASS - CIMV2  Win32_NTLogEvent -has the events  and the messeges in it.
 writing a querry to it may be tricky but if you need the File mane from the
 Message field this is the way to get it without writing new scripts, or
 paying for upgrades.

 or just run WMI checks directly and use wrapper scripts to interpret the
 results.
 please not on this, if a querry has no match there may be a NO OUTPUT error.

Just to clarify,

Eventlog_new Should be a cleaner command line, and should cut down in time
to complete.

IT will NOT return the Message field of the events!

[Nagios-users] NC_Net.EventLog.Receiving error codes.Could I receive more info from the EventLog?

2007-10-04 Thread Florencio Cano
Hello,
Thanks to Hugo and Roger help I've been able to check Windows 2003
EventLog from the Nagios server. My idea is to audit access to some
objects in the Windows 2003 machine as for example, a confidential
document. And I want to see an alert in Nagios when I receive this
information from the Windows EventLog Plugin (check_nt -v EVENTLOG).
But, now, I'm receiving only the error codes and I want to receive
more info detailed in the EventLog as for example the object name
(filename in my case). Is this possible?

And I wanted to say that I'm using NC_Net in a Spanish installation
Windows 2003 installation and it seems to run ok.
