I have been getting some false alarms (pages) between 4am and 4:30am for certain hosts and services on my network. We are running cron jobs around this time for backups and a few other things which are causing these checks to fail during this time. This doesn't happen all the time but on occassion.

Greetings,
We have been using Nagios for a while now and have had
NSClient installed on several boxes with Windows 2003 SP1. One of the
boxes had an issue with NSClient that involved a memory leak that
consistently brought the server down after approximately 2 days. We
believe the is
anyway.

The retry check interval should be smaller value than the normal check
interval. When a problem is detected, you don't want to delay the check
even more, you want to retry the check and find out if there really is a
problem. Here is a good reference for you:

Thats depends on what you feel is acceptable and your environment. I have
my normal check at 5, retry at 2 and max attempts at 2. That allows for a
decently fast notification for me. I might even change the retry to 1 since
i dont manage a huge environment, nagios takes like 2% cpu on a single vcpu

Nagios.cfg and default is enabled if i recall correctly. Or google, my
friend. Nagios.org also has very thorough documentation.

When I define them on separate lines, Nagios seems to only pick up the last
event_handler defined which is reset-proc
Any ideas?

Can you provide us your command and contact definition? It should
be $SERVICEOUTPUT$ though.

This is by design, and it is only a warning message. The config is valid
and should work as you intended. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery
notification for something you never knew was a problem. "Unknowns" are not
considered problems in Nagios logic.

The check_ping Nagios plugin does not ping hostnames, only IP addresses.

Hats off to you, Holger. It does work but I was using google.com which
doesn't. Strange because it is pingable but returns network unreachable
with check_ping. Hey at least I learned something today.

Don't specify "-H ftpserver" in the service definition since the command
already knows which host to check.
Good:
define service{
use generic-service
hostgroup_nameweb-servers
service_descriptionFTP
check_command
You can monitor the path of a website with the -u option. Here is an
example:
check_http -H mysite.com -u "/tux" -f follow
You will probably want to use the "-f follow" option if your website uses
any kind of redirection method.
