Hi there NAGIOS FAQ F0074: "How do I monitor DHCP services on my network?"
[..]Note that the plugin *must* best installed suid root in order to run, as it binds to a privileged port (UDP 67) in order to listen to DHCPOFFER packets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #ls -lpsa -rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios 56028 Mar 29 09:23 check_dhcp #./check_dhcp my.dhcp.server Error: Could not bind to DHCP socket (port 68)! Check your privileges... #chown root:nagios check_dhcp #chmod 4710 check_dhcp #ls -lpsa -rws--x--- 1 root nagios 56028 Mar 29 09:23 check_dhcp #./check_dhcp my.dhcp.server Error: Could not bind to DHCP socket (port 68)! Check your privileges... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any help?
