Not without a little (very little) work. Unless someone else already has
one up at nagiosexchange.org, you'd need to write your own little plugin
that basically runs the date command (assuming linux) and returns OK and the
output from the date command. Then you could run that script as a service

I've recently been tasked with monitoring an Exchange 2007 single-copy
cluster so I've been perusing what's available at nagiosexchange.org as well
as poking around what Google turns up. Most of what I've found is pretty
old (Exchange 5.5) with a few newer bits (Exchange 2003) but nothing
specific
I've got an interesting problem with a particular setup. I'm monitoring a
number of servers that the main Nagios installation doesn't have direct
network access to, so I pass all of the host and service checks through an
NRPE installation that can communicate with both Nagios and the servers

I can't believe this isn't in the documentation so I fear I'm looking the
wrong place, but I sure can't find it. I'm playing with the output of

I'm looking to take my monitoring of a transfer switch to the next level
beyond just dry-contacts. The switch manufacturer offers a monitoring card
that is TCP/IP capable, but it does not expose the various things it
monitors over SNMP, but instead uses ModBus/TCP. I've not run into that
format

I see no reason that wouldn't work. If you're using NCSA you'd have to run
them on different ports, but other than that it should work. Keep in mind
though that with user groups and hostgroups you can achieve the same effect
while still using only one instance of Nagios.

I would just write a quick script that
grabs the value on the counter, then grabs the value again and subtracts the
first from the second. Publish that value out via SNMP and then just use
check_snmp to verify that the value is >=1. People with more
programming skills than I would probabl

So you want it to return critical only if the pattern is found? Check
out the negate utility that I believe is still part of the plugins
package
It's not a perfect solution, but what I've done to
achieve more or less what you're looking for is:
Create an .htaccess file for the
nagios/share directory:
AuthName "Nagios Access"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile

I was perusing nagiosexchange.org and ran across the Oreon Project
(http://www.oreon-project.org/index-en.html). Has anyone given this a
shot? Comments? It looks amazing from the screenshots, but it seems to
be a pretty young project so I'm concerned it might still be pretty
buggy...

Is your Nagios server permitted to relay through your
Exchange server?

There are two ways you

I don't have such a script, but here's how I'd do it:
Assuming you're using NRPE-NT:
1. Configure a check for the particular service you're wanting to
monitor.
2. Write a
