Thanks for not giving up -- it works!!! For whatever reason, mapping a drive with "net use" makes a difference, even if you don't use the drive letter in your command. My version of the script is optimistic -- it assumes the connection was made. I replaced the status message "The comm...

Ok, I'll take a look at the check_smb_share. I'm kind of hoping to do something in Windows , though. I've been looking at other plugins in the Nagios Exchange . There's one PowerShell script that looks promising but I don't know PowerShell at all and it looks like it has a steep learning curve. Sinc...

I figured I'd give porting my .bat plugin to .vbs a shot to see if that would work. It didn't. I'm pointing to it in Nagios like this: check_xi_ncpa!-t 'faKEpaSSwoRD' -P 5693 -M 'plugins/zipdir.vbs' Again, the backslashes are being doubled (why???) so that the script returns "path not found&quo...

It looks like you're using the same IP address as before, so that's why it works. During my troubleshooting, I mapped X: to the remote directory and it did not work. I tried again this morning just to make sure. When I add additional ECHO commands to my batch file, you can see in Nagios that the bac...

OK, thanks.

I even tried checking a directory on the C drive of my laptop and that didn't work, so it's like it only works locally.

Let me know what you learn.

The machine with the .bat file is my PC which is running the NCPA agent. It is looking for .zip files uploaded to a network server by our developers. C:\Program Files (x86)\Nagios\NCPA\plugins>DIR "\\C210EIBSWEBDEV1\e$\##VNO_Web_PDs\*.ZIP" Volume in drive \\C210EIBSWEBDEV1\e$ is DATA Volum...

Good morning, G, and thanks for your reply. I wasn't having any luck with the IP address until I noticed yours was checking for files on your local C drive. I tried it with my C drive and it works, even with the host name. The problem is that developers are uploading their work to a network drive. A...

Good morning, all. Linux 3.10.0-1160.31.1.el7.x86_64 Nagios XI 5.8.4 Host with NCPA plugin: Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2 I deleted my post regarding a somewhat related topic. It turns out Nagios doubles up on backslashes whether they are included in the .bat file (NCPA "plugin") or, as sugge...

Code: Select all

su - nagios
sudo yum check-update
getenforce
ls -la /etc/pki/consumer

Per your earlier post, I added "sudo" in the script and it worked. Thanks for your help.
