Re: [Nagios-users] Daily status report?

Marc, Have you looked on Nagios Exchange? There is a project called Nagios Email Report that may be what you are looking for. I haven't used it, so I can't make any claims on how well it works. The link is http://www.nagiosexchange.org/AddOn_Projects.22.0.html?tx_netnagext_pi1[p_view]=640 Hope that helps, David Price Marc Belanger wrote: Greetings, I have nagios 2.x installed on Solaris 10 monitoring ~100 hosts, and ~1000 services. I am collecting perfdata, As the admin/engineer, I'm quite happy with the http interface for checking the status of systems and knowing what needs to get fixed/looked at. I installed/configured nagios originally for my benefit anyways, as part of a data center lights out effort. The problem: Management saw the website (I blame myself, screensaver is my new best friend). We all know what happens when suits get involved... yes, they want a daily report. Apparently clicking on a link, and logging into a website is too much work. My first solution: Heh, I'd snap a screen print of a custom report, and mail it. Life was good, until I went on vacation. My second solution: Google, google, google. I'm surprised that I still cannot snap a txt formatted host up/down for 'report period' (in my case 7am-5pm defined in the cfg's) without using cacti, rrdtool, or any other add-ons. My third solution: I'm giving in to rrdtool (I think). It seems like a lot more work than I want to invest, but I can perl/shell script it and crontab it, so the suits get thier daily eye candy, and I can go back on vacation. My questions: - Is there a better way I haven't thought of, or found? - Is there an EASIER way I haven't thought of, or found? - HALP! - Any off the cuff suggestions? Aside from screensavers.

There is already an option to check the address is in the right range, which I guess amounts to a similar thing.

[Nagios-users] New check script: check_nsca
I can't believe I'm the first one to think of this. o_O NSCA is vitally important to most of our Nagios environments and nobody has bothered to verify that the daemon itself works properly? At my current client we've run into many occasions where the NSCA daemon was running, but was not transferring message to Nagios itself. So while things -look- hunkydory, we were actually missing a lot of incoming messages (remember that Nagios just repeats the last status if it doesn't receive any new status updates). The script is up for grabs on the Exchange. As the page describes, it needs to be run on the system running the NSCA daemon and it also requires the use of send_nsca. Any comments/suggestions/bitches/moans are more than welcome :) I realize it's not perfect yet, but it's better than nothing. Cheers! Thomas - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Great idea, I never though of it for some reason.

Re: [Nagios-users] detect 2 DHCP Servers on network?
The best way?I'd think the 'stuffed' laptops would have the IP of the server providing IP's. Simple MAC address - switch port search and subsequent lockdown of that switch port should tell you who your idiot is by listening to who is screaming about the crappy network the loudest. The plugin check_dhcp could be used globally on all monitored hosts in the same fashion as check_ping. Problem there is only if the offending dhcp box isn't monitored by nagios.Good luck.-Marc On 8/16/06, Hari Sekhon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hari Sekhon wrote: Eli Stair wrote: Use CPAN's Net::DHCP::Packet to quickly create a DHCPDISCOVER packet, andIO::Socket::INET to read raw incoming data to port 68, count the number ofDHCPOFFER's you get.

Really there should be an option to this plugin to check if there is more than N offers received and also there should be an option to make sure that the offer is received from the correct server to ensure it hasn't been usurped by another dhcp server. There is already an option to check the address is in the right range, which I guess amounts to a similar thing. If this option can be present then the option to make sure that the address was supplied by the correct server/servers isn't too far a stretch. Hari -Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[Nagios-users] ndoutils configure won't find mysql include files, and ndo2db exiting on signal 4
Hi, I've been trying to get ndoutils to work but am having some trouble. ./configure doesn't find my mysql include files (it does find the library). Maybe it doesn't work with mysql 5? I've tried --with-mysql-inc=/usr/local, /usr/local/include, and /usr/local/include/mysql (the files are in here; this is on FreeBSD). It never finds them. I've tried with and without specifying with-mysql-lib and in different orders on the command line to no avail. Any ideas? I ran out of ideas and went into configure and made it think the headers were there regardless of the test. Then changing source/Makefile and adding -I/usr/local/include to OTHERLIBS caused everything to compile correctly. Anyway, I got things running, but whenever Nagios runs a check (I assume, it's periodic), I see this: Aug 16 20:02:52 nagios pid 83608 (ndo2db), uid 1007: exited on signal 4 Aug 16 20:02:52 nagios nagios: ndomod: Error writing to data sink!

Aug 16 20:03:28 nagios pid 83731 (ndo2db), uid 1007: exited on signal 4 The ndo2db process doesn't quit, it must restart or something, maybe it can't connect to the DB? There are no messages logged about what's going on, and no debug/verbose mode for ndo2db. :( I think that corresponds to signal ILL, but either way I'm guessing it has something to do with a busted mysql connection somewhere...

[Nagios-users] Web admin for nagios for multiple groups
Hi. I have a situation where I'd like to allow multiple groups to administer their own devices to monitor via a web front end. These users won't have direct access to the linux host (nor would they know how to edit a file anyway), so it needs to be web based. I was hoping that I could use the cfg_dir option to give each group their own nagios space, but was wondering if any of the current web-based admin tools would be fairly easy to adapt to a scheme like that? Or, are there any current web-based admin tools that understand separate users (i.e. groups) already that might just work, and I won't care about how the underlying config files are laid out. :) Thanks, Sam - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
