Re: [Nagios-users] Newbie Question.. Monitoring Lnux machines.
Take a look at NRPE for Linux/Unix clients. There are RPM's available
from rpmforge which will get you going.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Newbie Question.. Monitoring Lnux machines.
Good day,
I have installed nagios, on my centOS VM. I can monitor Windows
machines and servers just fine using nsclient++. How can I monitor a
Linux server? There is no NSclient++ available, and the guide on
monitoring linux machines is incomplete
I have check my localhost.cfg file, thinking I could rename it to
LinuxServer.cfg but it is quite empty:
define host {
host_name localhost
use linux-server
alias localhost
address 127.0.0.1
;
register1
}
Any help is appreciated.
Regards

Hi there --
The NRPE, Nagios Remote Plugin Executor, software can be installed on the Linux
systems along with the plugins that are also
present on the server. The combination of the two will enable you to monitor the
clients in question.

Re: [Nagios-users] Newbie Question.. Monitoring Lnux machines.
If the system is on the local network there is no reason to use the client.
It can monitor if the system is up or down. I believe the client is just for
if your not on the local lan

Re: [Nagios-users] Newbie Question.. Monitoring Lnux machines.
Well, local lan really doesn't have to do with it. You CAN use SNMP for
some of the checks, my in my experience you can't get everything from
SNMP or as detailed info on some things, so I always use NRPE. If you
are monitoring the local machine, (localhost) then you obviously don't
need an agent, but if you are monitoring other servers you'll need with
SNMP or NRPE.
