I am relatively new to Nagios, I am setting up a group of Linux machines that all send reports to a central monitoring one with nsca.
I have a separate .cfg file for each machine, I would like to share this file between remote and central machines - so that if I change anything I just copy it over. One change that *is* needed is the value of active_checks_enabled - which is zero on the central box and one on the remote. I tried something like this in a 'define service': active_checks_enabled $USER11$ and elsewhere had: $USER11$=1 or $USER11$=0 as appropriate for the machine. This does not work. Why ? and is there a way of achieving what I want to do ?
