Yes, I was running the check_nagios on the remote server.

Thanks! Got it working and now trying to add another server to the
hostgroup. Unbelievably, it works from the command line, but reports
'Host key verification failed' in the log and sends notifications. I run
this from the command line and it works with no password required...
genoa# /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_by_ssh -H <host IP> -l <snip> -i <snip>
-C "/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_nagios /var/spool/nagios/status.dat 5
'/usr/local/bin/nagios'"
NAGIOS OK: 1 process, status log updated 5 seconds ago
genoa# tail -1 /var/spool/nagios/nagios.log
[1163098643] SERVICE ALERT: esmtp-ky;NAGIOS;WARNING;HARD;3;Host key
verification failed.
Here is the setup, the esmtp host is working fine and reporting OK:
define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name nagios-servers
alias Nagios Servers
members esmtp,esmtp-ky
}
define host{
use generic-host ; Name of host
template to use
host_name esmtp-ky
alias KY Mail Gateway
address <host IP>
}
How is this possible? Both remote servers have the same key in their
authorized_keys file and like you can see from above, it works from the
command line flawlessly :(
