Hi Matthew Its neither, its actually you not understanding what peer means. Peer is effectively the next time server (or servers) up the chain, so generally they will be different by one. To see what peer means, type in ntpq, then type in peer. That will list the peers of your server and their

I use check_snmp to get certain traps from Openmanage but I suspect check_openmanage works the same way. There is a separate mib (dcstorag(10893).mib) for the disk storage side as opposed to the rest of the chassis (10892.mib) so my guess would be the problem lies there. What does the following gi

Stephen Most email systems move messages to a retry queue if the first attempt at sending fails. If your email does something like that you can just write a simple script to check whether it is empty or not and return a status to Nagios. There might be a genuine reason why the first send fails

Hi Emmanuel What user/group do you have set in /etc/xinet.d/nrpe? Are you sure that combination has all the rights it needs? Perhaps its worth setting it to root or putting an entry in the sudoers file to allow that user to run the command. It looks like it cannot read one of the java files, po

Well I tried writing a wrapper script to see what check_http was actually receiving. The answer would appear to be absolutely nothing, in fact check_http is never even getting called. Something in the parameters would appear to be causing nagios to throw an exception when trying to make the call
