Re: [Nagios-users] Deleted init.d script

Am I right in thinking that to make Nagios start at system bootup, I have to create a link to /etc/init.d/nagios in /etc/rcS.d, and then enable nagios for my default runlevel with sysv-rc-conf, or just linking in the appropriate directory? debian uses update-rc.d to create the symlinks in /etc/rc*.d/; if you cd to /etc/init.d and as root run # update-rc.d nagios defaults [enter] it should do what you want; maybe the symlinks already exist (you said you deleted the init script, but if you didn't run update-rc.d to remove the symlinks, they should be there (in theory); just check with ls -l /etc/rc*.d/*nagios if you see broken links there. -- groeten, Natxo Asenjo -- ___ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null

[Nagios-users] check_ntp on blade systems
I'm using check_ntp for some of my blade systems and it says: NTP CRITICAL: No response from NTP server By using the verbose mode I can see it's sending: sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 re-sending request to peer 0 NTP CRITICAL: No response from NTP server I used tcpdump from the blade server and can see packets coming in from the nagios server. I use check_ntp to monitor many of my other systems without any problem. I also do lots of other checks (including various SNMP checks) on the blade system via Nagios without any problem.

[Nagios-users] Add users to contact group
I would like to add my Active Directory users to nagios contact group.
I have edited /etc/nagios/objects/contacts.cfg file and added:
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name ad
alias ad
members user1, user2
}
On the same file I defined contact:
define contact{
contact_namead
use generic-contact
alias ad
email email
}
but I get an error: could not find any contact matching ad
Is there any way to define all Active Directory users in a group?
Thanks.

Re: [Nagios-users] detecting rogue dhcp server

I have had a look at two programs (not Nagios plugins): dhcp_probe and roguedetect - none suitable for human consumption yet. There is an excellent program on Windows call dhcploc.exe but I'm on Linux. check_dhcp can sort of do what you want. Give it a whirl. After doing a lot of Google searching I found http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=nagiosplug-devela=2007-12t=5955729 Looks like there is an -x switch which will do exactly that. But I'm having trouble locating that check_dhcp C program or even the plugin bundle. Mine doesn't have the -x switch. Does anyone know where can I download this code?
