Nagios Support Forum

OK, I wanted to check to be sure that it would not interfere with the nagiosxi apache config.

Lock it

IS it ok to install fail2ban on the nagiosxi server or is there something built in that provides the same function?

I had considered that but since I was running local I wanted the option to force check. If you think passive is the best way to locally send to multiple services I will set it up for testing.

Unless you can think of any other way to accomplish this then go ahead and lock it.

Thanks!

I have a check that logs into an email account and retrieves mail. Based on the content of the email it could be one of 2 services. Both emails could be in the mailbox at the same time so I don't know if the mail will be for a particular service until I parse it. After the mail is checked it is move...

Sorry for the late reply. All is good. Lock it.

I think I figured it out. If I use -f stickyport I get the result I'm looking for. /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H 3.1.1.1 -f ok -I 3.1.1.1 -u "/provisioning" -S --sni -p 8443 -f stickyport -s Accelerator HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 4133 bytes in 0.043 second response time |time=0.0...

The url does not change. I think the 302 may be caused by the unsigned cert warning. If I use a browser and an exception is added for the unsigned cert the desired page loads with a 200. I do not see the 302 in developer tools.

I need to monitor a https web site and look for a string. I'm trying to use check_http. This server does not have a signed cert. If I only check for the page load it succeeds. /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H 3.1.1.1 -f ok -I 3.1.1.1 -u "/provisioning" -S --sni -p 8443 HTTP OK: HTTP...

Go ahead and close this thread. I'm going to start the logging of snmptrapd. If I have any issues I'll start a new thread.
