rvice configurations. Is there a system in
Nagios 3 to change the host definitions without editing a
configuration file, redeploying the configs and restarting the nagios
service?

If your switch can do SNMP you can monitor the switchport the trunk is
connected to.

You can put the services in a service group and schedule downtime for
all services in that group.

It helps me to build up a NRPE service check manually. First execute
it manually on the host and confirm it's working, next copy the
command line into the nrpe configuration. Disconnect from that host
and connect to the host where nagios is running and manually execute
the check_nrpe plugin with th

Open the web panel of Nagios and click on the "documentation" link.
It's the second entry in the "general" category in the left frame.

I believe your question would be better served on a list related to SELinux.
In my experience SELinux is overkill for anything but the most
paranoid security situations. Without a complete understanding of your
entire security landscape, you'll just end up fighting with your own
systems because SE

Treat them as two different hosts, or pick a single address to depend on.

Here's my config. It's functional:

This is gonna be hard to debug with out any debugging output.
I concur, it is by no means "normal" for nagios to "just stop doing
anything" without user intervention. For comparison, I'm running
Nagios 3.0.6 from Debian with 34 hosts and 107 services. It has been
running continually for 3 months,
cular host or
service group. Though there's nothing stopping you from taking
screenshots and making your own.

I would think of this as more of a policy question than a technical
one. If a large number of hosts and services are going down often
enough for you to need a batch processing script to trigger nagios to
recognize down time, perhaps your monitoring plan could be altered?
You can define a check time
Nagios itself does have some trending tools in version 3, though they
are not very comprehensive. Are you looking for something beyond their
scope?

Here's a mystery for the books. I was alerted this morning of a socket
timeout while nagios attempted to connect the NRPE server on a remote
host. I go in and manually check that host and sure enough:
Feb 12 16:02:59 conversion-10 nrpe[6886]: Error: Could not complete
SSL handshake. 5
Feb 12 16:36
You can also try typing your arguments at the far end in the nrpe
command file. I'm not the biggest fan of passing arguments via nrpe.
I've found it simpler to deploy the same nrpe command file to a
cluster and have nagios just execute the check_nrpe_1arg command.
