Ok, so I'm monitoring about 100 websites with string checks via check_http.
We are mirroring what our datacenter actually checks, so we have
notifications turned off so when a site goes down we aren't being spammed by
the datacenter and our nagios installation.

Would it be possible using Nsclient++ to monitor for a process name?
We need to make sure Outlook.exe is running on the server and if it
isn't, send out notifications.

I have a checkstring service that kicks off every 10 minutes. After
failure it will retry every minute. We're trying to track
availability on some of our servers so this is its purpose. However I

I think the issue was that the checkstring is a service, but the host
wasn't down (it could still ping it). So it considered the host up
but the service down. I created a service group so we could check
availability based on the checkstring service.

I have two sites being monitored with checkhttp & a string. When I do
an availability report for today it shows as 100% availability,
however if I go further in and click on the host, it shows 95.4% Time
OK with 4.5% Time Critical. Why is this downtime not showing in the
availability report?

What is the best way to allow for a 1-4AM outage on a few hosts? A cron job
that will schedule it every night, or through time periods?

I have a functioning nagios setup but I have a quick question. I am going

I noticed in Nagios (using Nsclient) that it reports that my server has
2.6GB of free memory available. However, it only has 2 gigs of physical
memory and windows reports 300MB free. Does nagios/nsclient factor in the
virtual memory?

What do
Last night I got a few warning/critical errors with a few recovery e-mails.
However towards this morning I received 2 critical alerts and even though
they recovered I didn't receive a recovery e-mail. Any ideas?

Does Nagios only send out notifications once it has reached the max retry on
services? If so, is the only way to make it automatically notify you as
soon as there is a problem to set the max retry to 1?
Thanks

I feel like i'm spamming this mail list. So far I'm monitoring a few
processes & services on a Windows 2003 Server. Would there be a way to have

and define each service? Let me know if you need more information.

But if you mean authentication within a windows AD domain. Maybe Samba can
