I would actually be willing to except this as an answer
here is the script I am using for submit_check_results
#!/bin/sh
# Arguments:
# $1 = host_name (Short name of the host that the service is associated
with)
# $2 = svc_description (Description of the service)
# $3 = state_string (A string respresenting the status of the given
service - "OK", "WARNING", "CRITICAL" OR "UNKNOWN")
# $4 = plugin_output (A text string that should be used as the plugin
output for the service check)
#
#
#
#
# Convert the state string to the corresponding return code
return_code=-1
case "$3" in
OK)
return_code=0
;;
WARNING)
return_code=1
;;
CRITICAL)
return_code=2
;;
UNKNOWN)
return_code=-1
;;
esac
# pipe the service check info into the send_nsca program, which in turn
transmits the data to the nsca deamon on the central
# monitoring server
/usr/bin/printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" "$1" "$2" "$return_code" "$4" |
/usr/local/nagios/bin/send_nsca XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -p XXXX -c
/usr/local/nagios/etc/send_nsca.cfg
my command def is
define command{
command_name submit_check_result
command_line
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result $HOSTNAME$
'$SERVICEDESC$' $SERVICESTATE$ '$OUTPUT$'
}
Identical to the sample script in the 2.0 doco and the sample command
definition i really just customized the ip and port

I actually had a similar issue last week with NSCA. It would time-out;
however I was able to telnet to the correct host/port.
The problem I found was that the macros were somehow incorrect for the
"submit_check" command that I used. For some reason, it showed that it
timed out, rather than showing an error of an incorrect macro.
Go figure.

Should be ...to confirm...
telnet <central server> <port>
Where <port> is on which you have configured NSCA on <central server> -

If it's getting timed out, it shouldn't respond.
Thanks.

I am getting stuff like this on my distributed server. It had been
working and I do not think I changed anything.
Could this be because the distributed server can not reach the central
server?
