G' Day Community, So before I go out and try to re-write check_ncpa.py or create a new Powershell version of it to run natively on Windows... Has anyone already gone through the trouble of fabricating Windows equivalent of SIGALRM embedded in check_ncpa.py? i.e. C:\Users\dg0123_\Desktop>python ./che...

Further extension of the script. Now I can run a report where it returns the hostname, ipAddr, hostTemplate(s) and Host Group(s). I have a duplicate hostname column...but I will correct that latter. Just in case anyone is interested... SELECT * FROM ( SELECT no.name1 AS hostgroup_name, nh.display_na...

gsmith So I guess my description wasn't clear as I can see now that I wasn't precise. From the Help documentation it describes the required parameters as follows: requiredParams.png There doesn't appear to be a parameter describing the use of a Host Template which is where my parameters are defined...

G 'Day Nagios Support, So I am wanting to write an automation to modify hosts that use host templates to assign multiple aspects of inherited configurations. But I can't seem to get the POST correct. Perhaps this isn't possible??? Regardless I appreciate your help in advance, Danny The error is comp...

This can be locked and thanks everyone.

You know...these are the things that just simply waste my time. So it seems that if I use the ipAddr in the Address field $HOSTADRESS$ , I end up with the following error: ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1) additional info: TLS: unable to get CN from peer certificate Could not bind to the LDA...
