If I were going to make a recommendation, it would be: Don't do it. You're asking for trouble. There are reasons people don't make their DB boxes available from the internet.

[Nagios-users] Monitor DB Server without outside IP Address
I just started using Nagios to monitor my two web servers from a development box outside of the production network. I would like to use Nagios to monitor my DB server which has no outside IP Address, but is on the same network as my webserver. I was wondering if you guys have any easy solutions for this? Right now I am thinking about setting up nagios to do a nrpe_check on a different port on my webserver, and configure my firewall to forward that port to my dbserver, which will also have the nrpe daemon running on it. It seems like that should work, if only I could configure my IP TABLES correctly. I would appreciate if anyone has any better solutions to this problem. Thank you, Jimmy - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Nagios-users] NDOUtils Problem with Acknowledgements table out of sync...
Hello everyone, I have the following: * ndoutils-1.4b2 * nagios-2.7-1.el4.rf * CentOS release 4.4 (Final) * mysql-5.0.22-1.centos.1 The ndoutils is running really well.

But, when the service or host recovers, the record does not get deleted from the acknowledgements table? Is anyone else having similar experiences?

Is your event handler executable by the nagios user? I'd add debug output to the event handler that gets written to a file to make sure that it's actually running and getting the input you expect. For example, in all my event handlers written in sh, I have the following as the first thing done -- LOGFILE=/usr/local/nagios/var/eventhandler.log; export LOGFILE echo -n `date` . " " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 echo "$0 IFP service check ($1) ($2) ($3) ($4)... " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 And lines like the following at appropriate places -- echo -n `date` . " " >> $LOGFILE 2>/usr/local/nagios/var/eventhandler.log 2>&1 echo -n "$0 Restarting IFP service (2nd soft critical state) on $4... " >> $LOGFILE 2>&1 /usr/bin/ssh $4 'sudo /etc/init.d/n2h2-ifpserver restart' >>$LOGFILE 2>&1 This allows for intimate tracing of the execution of the event handler to catch any problems. -- Marc - Take Surveys.

Re: [Nagios-users] Fw: Windows Process Checking
Robert, I think you may misunderstand what this program is used for. It's a program that you run on a Windows box to collect information from the Windows Performance Data Helper (PDH) library that Microsoft provides. It would have no function on a *nix box. In our case, we have a Linux Nagios installation which uses NRPE to connect remotely to Windows machines and runs the wincheck_counter.exe program as a plugin which returns whatever information about that windows box we want (like cpu load at that moment, for example). The PDH.DLL file is really only needed if your particular windows box doesn't have it already. Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3 already have it although I've had some weird issues with wincheck_counter.exe on Win2K, but maybe that's just me. Hope that helps.

[Nagios-users] Nagios Alert integration with EMC Smarts
Hi, Has any one integrated Nagios alerts with EMC Smarts. Which approach should be taken to ensure that we can bring this integration out of the box. To my mind I see two adapters. SNMP Trap and Syslog adapter. Which of these will be out of the box without much effort to the Nagios/Smarts guy. Thanks and Regards, Narendran Neelamegam - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
