What's your max_check_attempts for the services? How many failures do you need to get for the passive checks before alerts are generated? I recently (this morning actually) setup passive checks for one of our servers, and had no issues with configuring the freshness checks, but I consider max_check_attempts of 1 to be considered failures on this particular service/check. -- Jon Angliss ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
