You say you have port 161 open on the border firewall, do the windows
machines have their firewalls enabled and are blocking port 161?

HI Richard,
thank you for comment.
comunity string I set up as for machines I have it works OK. Comunity
string is same, and let say it is "niceday" but it is same on all
machines I have plan to monitor.
I tried all, but it I am really stuck, same configuration ( which I
btw just copy /paste to machines behind firewal ) works corretly on
machines which are direct accessable from nagios server.
I have port 161 open.
Thank you all for comment, I need to hear your experiences regarding this
Kind regards,

Hi Arlytex,
Is it possible that the SNMP password (community string) is not 'public' on
your Windows 2003 servers that are behind the firewall? Perhaps if they're
behind a firewall, someone also went to the trouble to change the SNMP
community string (password) to reach them?
Regards,
Richard

Hi all,
I am using nagios3 and I would like an monitoring system for my
network. I have cca 10 hosts in "my network" but they are behind
firewall.
I mean in "my network" which is not exposed to outside world, some
machines are behidn firewals in.
Critical machines run Windows 2003 server OS, and I tried to use
NSClient++, in combination with check_nrpe ( I tried both ports 5666
and 12489 ) and I can get information from windows servers--checking
them with check_nrpe looks ok.
Then I realized that with SNMP I could better informations ( tested on
machines directly accessible from nagios server ) and decided to
copy/paste working SNMP configuration from windows machines and add
necessary servers to nagios conf files and have all unified via SNMP
monitoring. I am using *.pl scripts from
http://nagios.manubulon.com/snmp_storage.html and for machines
directly accessible all is ok
But I got into troubles for servers behind firewall :) Ports 161/162 (
UDP/TCP ) are open on firewal to windows servers
When I run
./check_snmp_storage.pl -H AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA -C public -m ^C: -w 80 -c
90 ( AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA address of win. machine behind firewal ) I am
getting an error
ERROR: Description/Type table : No response from remote host 'AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA'.
what means no return information from server. First I suspected on
connectivity and I moved SNMP to listen on another port, run command
./check_snmp_storage.pl -H AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA -C public -m ^C: -w 80 -c
90 --port 2222
but same issue ( this process works when I test it on machines which
are not behind firewall )
On windows machine netstat -a shows
UDP server:snmp *:*
UDP server:snmptrap *:*
what means snmp is listenning ( same configuration of SNMP service
works ok for machines which are in same net as nagios server )
I am suspection it could something to do with SNMP client / SNMP
protocol how it works, as I am getting correct response when I sent it
to 5666 + check_nrpe.
Any reasonable hint what I could check will very useful, so thank you
in advance. I am preety lost I do not really know what to check more
in order to resolve this.
Operating system I use for nagios server is Debian stable 5, I am very
sure configuration of SNMP on Windows servers is correct. HW I am want
to monitor are HP Proliants DL360 G5, DL380 G5
Kind regards,
Arlytex
