Hi John, This reply is not related to your notes below but I am curious about how (and why) you're using SEC with Nagios. Could you elaborate at a high level? I'm not very familiar with Nagios but from my reading it contains a lot of functionality. Doesn't Nagios support SEC-like functionality?

To do this I am using: action= pipe '[%u] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;myhost;SyslogInfo;1;message %s' \ ssh nagios use_forced_command This fails to pass syntax check (sec -testonly). I also tried: action= pipe ('[%u] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;myhost;SyslogInfo;1;message %s') \ ssh nagios use_forced_command and this failed as well. This seems to work: action= pipe '([%u] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;myhost;SyslogInfo;1;message %s)' \ ssh nagios use_forced_command I think it would be worth mentioning this in the pipe action documentation since the normal rule of wrapping the argument in ()'s doesn't seem to hold. -- -- rouilj John Rouillard =========================================================================== My employers don't acknowledge my existence much less my opinions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
