You want documentation for the plugins -- nagios doesn't do any checking by itself, so it depends where you get them from. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/plugins.html is a starting point.
For your specific requirement, you should probably look at the check_tcp plugin -- "Watch out for that tree" Paul Weaver Systems Development Engineer News Production Facilities, BBC News -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Miller Sent: 18 June 2008 15:57 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Config documentation Can anyone tell me where I might find documentation to tell how to monitor different aspects of a server. For example, I want to monitor my servers to ensure they are always responding on port 104. How do I do that? Is there somewhere I can look that wil explain all the options available to me?
