[Nagios-users] SSL Handshake errors
Hi all Before I went home last night all my servers were responding to Nagios, this morning when I get into work there is one server that is reporting Could not complete SSL handshake, I have asked around but it appears that nobody has made any changes to the server. How can this be working one minutes and then report SSL problems the next, do you think a change has been made somewhere if so could you point me to where the possible changes were made.

Re: [Nagios-users] Remote Acknowledge
Hi Group I'm trying to find a way of letting our users acknowledge their own servers faults without the need to log in to Nagios, I have seen that there are remote commands you can issue which allow this to happen, but this is where I need a little instruction on how to use them. http://www.nagios.org/developerinfo/externalcommands/commandin fo.php?command_id=39 In the Nagios book I have been reading it mention's the use of Ticket Systems and making sure that Nagios can integrate with them and when I goggled the question the one of the results I got was OTRS. I guess that means I can raise a ticket by injecting Nagios info into it, but would I be able to use ACK's from within too, if not do you know of a solution that could do this.

}
And my hosts.allow looks like

You have to adjust the olny_from line, your hosts.allow allows 17.0.0.1 to
connect to nrpe, but xinetd rejects the request, because you just allows
connections from 127.0.0.1 (or is there the 2 missing in the hosts.allow
line?)
you can simply write the domain name to only_from.
If you use the hosts.allow you could even exclude the only_from line from
the xinetd configuration by setting 3 in front of the line.
Greetings,
Christian

nrpe: 17.0.0.1 monitor.domain.co.uk
But I'm still getting Could not complete SSL handshake, is the above
configuration correct or can I not use domain names instead of IP's
You have to adjust the olny_from line, your hosts.allow allows 17.0.0.1 to
connect to nrpe, but xinetd rejects the request, because you just allows
connections from 127.0.0.1 (or is there the 2 missing in the hosts.allow
line?)
you can simply write the domain name to only_from.
If you use the hosts.allow you could even exclude the only_from line from
the xinetd configuration by setting 3 in front of the line.

Re: [Nagios-users] only_from = 127.0.0.1
That has now done the trick but I'm a little confused as to why this work
under host.allow and not when used in my nrpe file, does anybody have the
answer to that?
Its on Centos 5.3, I'm going to try Fedora to see if that is the same
Thanks for your help

just comment the line out by putting the # in the front of the line:

[Nagios-users] Email to Voice Service
Hi All I'm looking for a way to send alerts to mobiles as well as to email accounts, at the minute I use an external company to convert my Emails to SMS but unable to find anybody who can do the same for Voice alerts to mobiles. I looked at x-on in the UK but they are not able to convert the email that is sent across from Nagios to voice, I have asked if then can let me know the format to see if I can change Nagios side of things to suit. In the mean time does anybody know how can achieve voice alerts to mobiles at all, I have heard that Asterisk can do it but I think only to one number.

Do they have to use the -H localhost directive or is there something
different they can use, the localhost just does not seem right
looking at the other examples above.
Yes, check_smtp connects to a 'remote' smtp server and verifies that
it answers so it needs to know what IP to connect to. It doesn't need
NRPE to do that. If this remote server answers on port 25 on an IP
reachable from your nagios host, you could just as easily run it from
your nagios host and probably have more reliable results. The only
scenario where the check above makes sense is if the SMTP server only
accepts connections from the local machine.
You can always run 'check_plugin --help' to see what parameters are
required and available.
NRPE is only needed for checking things that don't expose external
services. Things like disk space, cpu utilization, memory use, etc..
Any network aware daemons like sendmail, postfix, apache, sshd, etc
can generally be checked without using NRPE.
Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I
define the command:
define service{
use generic-service
host_name linux-server
service_description SSH
check_command check_nrpe!check_ssh
}
This is another one that doesn't really make sense to run through
NRPE. check_ssh tries to connect to port 22 on a specified host (-H)
to see if sshd is listening. You'd want to perform that test from a
different box than sshd is running on to make sure it's listening
publicly. Running directly from nagios is better.
define service{
use generic-service
host_name linux-server
service_description SSH
check_command check_ssh
}
Assuming your check_ssh command definition looks something like --
define command {
command_name check_ssh
command_line $USER1$/check_ssh -t 30 -H
$HOSTADDRESS$
}

Subject: [Nagios-users] How to monitor using custom scripts in nagios.
Hi Friends,
I Want share My experience of monitoring scripts on nagios , Very
simple and Easy.
I am 3 months experienced with nagios and u should make copy of all your
modifying files initially.
Actually I want to monitor tomcat threads,memory etc.. along with other
services , i could not find plug ins similar to mysql.
In my office we have inbuilt scripts to monitor tomcat manually.
On test bases I had taken one of this script and tested , I had success.
There are other ways thanks to Mr.Richard Quintin who shared his knowledge
of using nagiosgraph and scripts to monitor tomcat but my suse10.2 ,
monitoring server have few issues i could not go head instead tried this.
Monitoring nagios using scripts.
Example:
Monitoring tomcat Threads.
At remote host side i.e where nrpe is installed / monitored box
Created a file tomcat_threads.sh using vi editor
#vi tomcat_threads.sh
Entered following three line code
#!/bin/sh
totalThreads=`ps -C java -L -o pid,tid,pcpu,state | wc -l`
echo Total Threads Available:$totalThreads
Save the file and quit
Made sure first script runs at # prompt.
Moved script to /usr/local/nagios/libexec folder if its not created here.
Set permission
#chmod 755 tomcat_threads.sh
Give ownner ship to nagios user only.
#chown nagios:nagios tomcat_threads.sh
#cd /usr/local/nagios/etc
#vi nrpe.cfg
Append below command line
command[tomcat_threads.sh]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/tomcat_threads.sh
Save and quit
Restart xinetd to make changes effected.
#service xinetd restart
At monitoring server side / where nagios monitoring server installed.
#cd /usr/local/nagios/etc/
#vi services.cfg
Append this service
define service{
use generic-service
host_name amazon
service_description tomcat_threads.sh
check_command check_nrpe!tomcat_threads.sh
notifications_enabled 0
}
Save and quit
check for erorrs
#/usr/local/nagios/bin /nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
correct your erorror if any.
Restart nagios service
#service nagios restart
DISCLAIMER:
This is what worked for me and i am confident i will add as many as scripts
i want in future.
You make changes as it suits to you and i own no responsibility for typo
error or if some thing goes wrong.
Please share your knowledge, knowledges grows by sharing while money
reduces by sharing.

[Nagios-users] Nagios/NRPE relationship
Hi all, hope you do no think this is a stupid question; however I have to
ask it anyway for a better understanding.
I have my Nagios Server with NRPE plugins installed and I have a Linux
Remote Server that I want to monitor, I know that you need NRPE on the
remote Linux box but after that it goes a bit glazed, this is the bit I need
to understand.
Here is the standard configuration NRPE installed on my remote Linux box:
command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10
command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c
30,25,20
command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20 -c 10 -p
/dev/sda1
command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5 -c 10
-s Z
command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c
200
So my question is, if I need to monitor SMTP on the remote box I would have
to ask the remote administrator to add the following command to their
nrpe.cfg:
Command[check_smtp]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_smtp -H localhost
Do they have to use the -H localhost directive or is there something
different they can use, the localhost just does not seem right looking at
the other examples above.
Then on my Nagios Server, under the .cfg box I want to monitor I define the
command:
define service{
use generic-service
host_name linux-server
service_description SSH
check_command check_nrpe!check_ssh
}
Hope its not such a stupid question that it does not warrant a reply.
Rgs
Martyn

[Nagios-users] NRPE only_from
Hi all, I want to test connectivity from the outside world to my Linux box inside my network, I'm wanting to test before I try and monitor an external box. On the inside of my network I have a Linux box on 192.168.3.245 running NRPE and my Nagios Server on 192.168.3.247 Both of these are connected to a 3560 Cisco Switch which in turn is connected to my Linksys Router then onto my Cable modem. On my Linux box I have in my nrpe only_from = 192.168.3.247 which allows Nagios to gather its stats, however if I change it to the public IP address that is given I get the following errors Check_NRPE: Error Could not complete SSL handshake. In my .cfg file on my Nagios server (the cfg of the box I want to monitor) I have pointed it to my public IP address and restarted Nagios. On my Linksys Router I'm port forwarding to the Linux box port 5666 but it makes no difference, I have even put my Linux box in the DMZ but still no joy. Does anybody know how I can test my Linux box so it looks like its from the external network, failing that does anybody have a test box I can try and monitor for 10 minutes or so. Also, NRPE the line only_from, am I allowed to put the domain name or is it just IP address only.

That said, I'm currently working on a complete Nagios client including install package that may do just about the same thing (and a few more things). You can already download it from Sourceforge, although the burn the server IP address into the MSI functionality isn't implemented yet. One thing I did differently from NSClient is that I am using HTTPS to submit the results (an older version also supported SSH, but I have not re-implemented that in the latest version).

[Nagios-users] Procs Warning
Not being very familiar with Ubuntu and similar systems I want to try and find out how many processors to monitor, I just started to monitor a fresh install of Ubuntu server to see what results I get back, at the minute I'm getting a Warning telling me 153 processors.

How many do you monitor? 120 5000 others in between. depends on the system and what processes/daemons are running on it. The question you should be asking is what is normal for the specific server you are monitoring. I have systems where thousands of processes are normal and other systems where only just over a hundred is normal. Spend a few days periodically counting the number of processes. Find the max and use that as your starting point. Tune up if you get false alarms. Tune down if you don't get alarms when you should have. -- Marc -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

Sounds like mail.proweb.co.uk is rejecting your connection. Is that a server you control? What do it's logs say about the transaction? If it's not a server you control, are you following standard/expected SMTP conventions? Is the e-mail address being used as the from valid (i.e. is the @domain part legitimate and exist in DNS)? This often comes from the hostname of the machine if you've not configured postfix to masquerade that.

[Nagios-users] CPU Critical
Hi All I have noticed whilst monitoring my NT server the CPU load level has been at critical status for 3d 8h 29m 32s and sitting at 100%, this is good news from a monitoring point of view as it was spotted, however I need to solve it. I know I can just jump on to my server and look at the processors I would find what was hogging it but is there a plugin/module or add-on that I can use to see what processors maxing out.

Re: [Nagios-users] Centreon
I'm glad you asked that. I install everything by the excellent wiki guide and all went well, Nagios started and I added my Servers and Routers and they are logging well, Not got MRTG installed as yet but I can see uptime and such, in all there are 3 Servers a Switch and 1 Network printer Fire up CentreonconfigurationHosts and I add a Cisco 3550, put all my Switch's details in and click save When I look at under home there are no hosts being monitored nor servers.. I then do the following which has complete knocked me for six:- CentreonConfigurationNagios Put tick in the following boxes, Generate Configuration Files, Run Nagios debug, Move export Files and restart Nagios Just gone back to my Nagios page and all my Servers and Switches have gone and been replaced by the 1 Switch I added above, not only that they all show errors, the switch shows it pings ok but the host name is Red, clicking on that it states host down.

Re: [Nagios-users] HP Network Printer
Right it FIXED!!
Here we go, when I installed the Server version instead of the Desktop
version of Ubuntu I also grabbed the latest Nagios Pluging
nagios-plugins-1.4.13.tar.gz because I thought that may be contributing
to my problem, however I noticed in the log as you rightly suggested I look
that the pluging were not being installed because the relevant snmp libs and
snmp perl libs were not found on Ubuntu, after I was looking around the
directories I noticed that they were there, so I have just reverted back to
nagios-plugins-1.4.11.tar.gz and to my amazement the check_hplj file was
compiled with lots of others too.
Just got to sort out my Cisco Switch now do I can point the check_command to
port 47
Just like to say a massive thanks to those who kept with me, James and Marc
especially.
So I think there may be a bug in nagios-plugins-1.4.13.tar.gz
Cheers

Re: [Nagios-users] templates.cfg
Assaf thanks for the reply, I could not understand where in Nagios it pointed to the conf.d directory and why it looked there for its .cfg files, now I understand Thanks Maryn -Original Message- From: Assaf Flatto [mailto:assaf.fla...@ssp-intl.com] Sent: 02 February 2009 09:15 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] templates.cfg You can extract the file to any directory you want and then add the cfg_file directive that points to it in the nagios.cfg . that being said - if your packages created a conf.d dir , your best way to go is to put it in there . This is a all inclusive directory where the nagios will read all .cfg files and load them.

James thanks for the reply, looks like there are many users with the same issue as me, http://osdir.com/ml/network.nagios.plugins/2006-11/msg00062.html The reason I want to use check_hpjd is because it reports back the toner levels too.
