Hi Gerhard I cannot get things to work. I currently have :
nagios ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/hpasmcli, /opt/compaq/utils/*, /sbin/hplog, /usr/sbin/hpacucli, /opt/compaq/acucli, /usr/local/nagios/libexec/* in my /etc/sudoers file. What can I try more ? I would really like to convince my management that Nagios is the tool that we need but I am little bit afraid of the time you have to spend to configure it :-) - PO Michel (misterpo) ----------------------- This thread is located in the archive at this URL: http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagios-users.34.0.html?&tx_maillisttofaq_pi1[showUid]=7881 > Hi Michel, > > > Should I uncomment the commad_prefix option in the nrpe.cfg > > config file ? > you would do that, if you want to run _all_ of your commands with sudo, > which is a crazy thing to do under normal circumstances.
