This is not something that you should have Nagios do. Nagios is not a
reporting system.
Your plugin is a program/script just like any other. Simply schedule a
daily run in cron that will send a report every 24 hours.

Oh, yeah, this is definitely the problem. Your script doesn't check
that you have anything in $dirtypages and you don't check the result
of open().

NRPE is what you want: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nrpe/NRPE.pdf
NRPE and the nagios-plugins package + any custom plugins you want to
use is usually what you want distributed to your monitored hosts.

because the init script says:
NagiosRunFile=${prefix}/var/nagios.lock
But your pid file is called nagios.pid.
So either recompile Nagios, or edit your init script to look in the
nagios.pid file instead (probably the easier route, eh? :-)

Have cron send Nagios a HUP to reload the config every 5 or 10

Use regex matching with host and service group names to get nice

Have you tried leaving out the notification_period line from the

saying "notification_period null" you are actually overriding all
inherited values for notification_period and setting it to null
instead.

The command definition for your notification command is where you want to

Make sure that you've edited the correct NRPE config file, reloaded nrped if
you're not using inetd. To check that
the check works from the command line, run the check_nrpe command from
Nagios, not check_http from Nagios or the webserver.

That's because you're running nrpe with inetd and not as a standalone
daemon. inetd will use /etc/services and the nrpe.cfg entry won't have an

Sure thing. Simply use the check_many plugin from the official plugins
package to aggregate the results of both checks, using to option to have it
return OK if one or more checks are OK (so that it will only go CRITICAL if
both VPNs are down).

Yeah, the "nagios" part just means that the nagios user spawned "./update
500". My guess is that you have a check command defined that calls
"./update", maybe the 500 is some kind of timeout? Check your command config
file.

Are you using freshness checking? If not, try creating a time period "never"
so that the active check is never scheduled.
Otherwise you usually just want to set active_checks_enabled to 0 but I
guess you don't want the CGIs to show that the checks are disabled?
