Well I would like to see a working example of the syntax for the check udp port in the service definitions of possible?

Thank you for that, ive tried many different methods so far and to date none have worked.
I realize this will be different for various protocols/services... I guess I haven't found the correct syntax for mine.

Still no luck, perhaps someone could share a working example of a service definition using check_udp? Or alternatively the same for something working using check_udp_port?

I had tried this in a couple of different ways. running the command manually as you displayed gave me the output that simply said "Critical:" without anything from the text in the command files that suggested a reason, even though I know the port was open and working. I did netstat on the ...

I can see the Nagios.log on the parent updating as the packets are coming in. What I'm not seeing is the status updates being reflected. If I look in the Nagios.log on the rece...

after setting debug this is the results I'm observing below. It seems to be trying and doesn't appear to be giving an error, but I don't see any packets parent server side and no updates are logged.

update, once again the send_nrdp.sh command run manually seems to work, but the send_nrdp.php does not. I'm going to try to edit the commands to use that, but, editing of this file is less clear, where do I add the url and token or is that only in the commands.cfg syntax? After changing the commands...
