[Nagios-users] Specifying a service on a different host with send_nsca

Hi All! We have nagios 2.4 and would like to know if there is any way of specifying a service different host than the one using send_nsca. For example, the nagios server is not allowed to have contact to several customers' networks. However, we do have one machine that does have access to each

[Nagios-users] Monitoring Nagios

Hi All! We had a problem the other day where the nagios process died and no one noticed it for over 30 minutes. Therefore, I was thinking about ways to monitor Nagios itself. One simply way would be a cronjob that checks if the nagios process is running and then uses yaps or something to send an

Hi All! Maybe I missed it in the documentation, but is there anyway to refer to a host by multiple names? We are using SolarWinds to monitor various SNMP values and when an alert triggers, we send a NSCA message to the Nagios server. In some cases the name is simply the host name and in other
