I use/d nsclient for the windows boxes(the ones i used to administer
*sigh*), perhaps nsclient++ is a more featured version
comment out the password line in nsc.ini (if the nsclient++ needs to
restart for the changes in the ini file to take effect, do so), try
running the check_nt command manually(from the command line) from ur
linux nagios server:
path-to-ur-check_commands/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -v $ARG1$ $ARG2$
replace the variables with whatever u have to. if that works, maybe you forgot
to restart the nsclient++ service so it can re-read the config file if ever it
doesnt periodically do so.
2. if that didn't work, check your eventlogs on your windows box and the
system log file on your linux box(/var/log/messages) for any messages
related to nagios, doing so could help you in further troubleshooting.
give me an update, i'd like to know any improvement if there is =D.
cheers!
