Screenly - centos 7

Post by tatakliyan »

Hi All,

I am trying to set up my Nagios server running on CentOS 7 with Screenly so that I can display my dashboard onto a mounted wall monitor in the NOC.

Screenly does not have the ability to use authentication so when I point it to the nagios server it just shows the login screen. I need to set it up to bypass the login and show the dashboard ie. make the dashboard available publicly with no auth

I found the following guide for Ubuntu but its not working for me in CentOS 7.
https://www.screenly.io/use-cases/dashboard/nagios/

Has anyone set this up or know how I would interpret the above guide to work with Nagios on CentOS 7?

Yes this for nagios log server, i realise that guide is for Nagios core. Does the same trick apply to Nagios log server?

Sorry, Nagios Log Server does not have an auto-login feature at this time.

Thanks Scott. That would be great. We are still trying to figure out the best way to display our Nagios Log server on a screen in the NOC (which runs screenly on a raspberry pi).

if this same solution for core server which I linked cant be done, is there another way to display the log server dashboard without a login?

Keen to hear what people currently use as a solution to displaying the log server dashboard on a NOC screen.

Unfortunately I don't know of any way to login to Log Server without a login prompt, but once you login it should stay logged in if the page is active in a browser.
