Nagios Support Forum

You're process worked fine. Frankly, it seems easier to mass delete the services and host rather than individually edit each service with the correct hostname. But I can see the value of both processes, especially if you have something that has more than the base-line services being monitored. Thank...

Greetings: I'm sure this is not a new topic. But my searches aren't coming up with much. I need to modify the hostname from an IP address to a friendly name. I move through the steps described in an earlier forum posting 1) CCM 2) Hosts under Monitoring in left pane 3) Edit 4) Change hostname to fri...

I've used that with my Red Hat boxes. My issue is that I'm working with Ubuntu.

I believe that one of this issues is that I've inherited these servers that used to belong to another company. Seems that they were using Nagios to monitor them, but that was an unknown fact to us.

did that as well: got this: CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes from daemon. Check the remote server logs for error messages.

remote host nrpe.cfg properly configured

OK. Prior to uninstalling the agent again, does anyone have any other ideas why this isn't working. I'll work on sending info from the log files to see if that gives us a clue.

Used the following sequence of commands: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nagiosinc/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sysstat (this is needed) nagios-agent When prompted, I add the Nagios IP address. Then I add remote host monitoring to Nagios. Keep in mind that when I checked the nrpe.cfg fil...

Unfortunately, I checked that as well. Does not exist.
