The host up/down status will be defined by the check_command in the host definition. What is this set to ? I would guess that it's been set to check something that the host doesn't repond to. P On 28/09/2010 09:16, Bram Gillemon wrote: Does the server reply to ping checks? As far as i know

The check_command in the *host* definition, not the service definition. Is this a Windows 2008 FTP server? If so, Win2008 disables pings out of the box, and a custom rule must be added to the Windows Firewall to allow ICMP ECHOREQ. Or use a check_command that would indeed show the correct
