Hi folks I am new to the community glad to join you. We were no longer receiving Nagios alerts. Apparently because IT killed the email account for the previous owner.
I decided to have alerts sent directly to me, as I researched the web I found two files to edit. nagios.cfg db_nagiossql_v3.sql Painful to say I probably shouldn't have done this. Anyway the maillog is below and they look correct. Feb 29 16:41:55 ng postfix/pickup[1947]: 2DC5F18928E4: uid=181 from=<nagios> Feb 29 16:41:55 ng postfix/cleanup[4317]: 2DC5F18928E4: message-id=<20120229164155.2DC5F18928E4@ng.localdomain> Feb 29 16:41:55 ng postfix/qmgr[1948]: 2DC5F18928E4: from=<nagios@ng.localdomain>, size=777, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Feb 29 16:41:55 ng postfix/smtp[4319]: 2DC5F18928E4: to=<old.u...@abc.com>, relay=wmsexg01.abc.com[10.200.104.15]:25, delay=0.24, delays=0.09/0/0.01/0.14, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 3EE5CB18940) Feb 29 16:41:55 ng postfix/qmgr[1948]: 2DC5F18928E4: removed Problem is the email is coming from the old user email. I am trying to make it come from myself. I have restarted postfix and Nagios but the email is still coming fomr old user . [02-29-2012 16:20:31] Nagios 3.3.1 starting... (PID=2282) First is there a way to clean up these files or test them to see what is wrong? Second how can I change the email address from which all Nagios emails are deliverred from?
