What happens if you run it manually as the Nagios user? What, if anything, appears in the logs on the server side?
How are you running nsca? inetd? Standalone? If standalone, is the nsca server configured to allow connections from your clients? Give us something to work with here. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ian Marks Sent: Friday, May 05, 2006 11:20 AM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] NSCA Time Out I'm having an issue with nsca in a distributed setup. I keep getting the following error "Warning: OCSP command '/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result_nsca /host_name/ 'Check Ping Service' OK '$OUTPUT$'' for service 'Check Ping Service' on host '/host_name/' timed out after 5 seconds" I see the initial connection on the central server get established, so I was assuming it was an encryption issue. For troubleshooting purposes, I have disabled encryption, but still see the same error. I have the following defined on the ##distributed server. in nagios.cfg obsess_over_services=1 ocsp_command=submit_check_result_nsca in checkcommnands.cfg define command{ command_name submit_check_result_nsca command_line /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result_nsca $HOSTNAME$ '$SERVICEDESC$' $SERVICESTATE$ '$OUTPUT$' } ##central server all services and hosts have been defined for the remote server, nsca is running, passive checks are enabled, and iptables rules have been set to allow the connection.
