-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I just updated a server today and a bit later it seems a significant part of the network was down right after the update. It was working great untill then and at first I was suspecting an issue with the POP of SIXXS as my IPv6 connectivity seemed to be down. But with further troubleshooting I noticed that check_ping is all of a sudden barfing over IPv6 addresses. Like: # /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -6 -H 2001:610:600:2cf::1 -w 1000,50% -c 5000,100% CRITICAL - Host not found (2001:610:600:2cf::1) This was never an issue with any plugin untill I did an update this morning on my Centos 4 machine. The package nagios-plugins 1.4.9 was fine but 1.4.11 is broken in this particular manner. So check_ping v1.81 (aka: 1810) (part of the 1.4.11 plugins) is broken. And check_ping v1.61 (part of the 1.4.9 plugins) is not broken. While there could always be a particular packager issue at hand I have no reason to suspect that this is a problem created by Dag. And check_ping is the only package that seems to suffer from this issue. I can do HTTP, SMTP, IMAP, .... connections to the IPv6 host without a problem and those Nagios plugins report no problem. For the moment I have reverted check_ping back to the older one to make things work again. Hugo. - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hugo.vanderkooij.org/ PGP/GPG?
