Most
plugins time out after 10 seconds of not being able to contact a
service (FTP, HTTP, etc). If the plugins are timing out after a short
period of time, increase the timeout value for the plugin using the
appropriate command line argument for that plugin. Try using a -t 12.
I think that only the plugin timeout default value is 10 seconds, the other
timeouts are higher. Someone else smarter than me can verify that.
Is this check_http failing every time now or only occasionally ? Try running
the check to a different site and see if those fail as well.
Is the server possibly busy at the same time??
Let us know what you find out.

Subject: [Nagios-users] CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds
Hi all -
I have been using nagios for a while to check whether some our web
sites are up and running
following is the line from the commands.cfg
command_line $USER1$/check_http -w 5 -c 10 -H our_dns_name -u /siteName -S -v
It was working fine. Starting this afternoon, it started giving Socket time
out. Logs have no information. Can you please share your experiences ?
Regards
