External check windows

[rkennedy]

If it's not working, then allow arguments = 1 is in the wrong place. The document outlines specifically where it needs to be under which pertains directly to NRPE.

I would make sure it's there, and then restart the NSClient++ service. After doing so, attempt to run the check, and if it fails again please post your nsclient configuration file.

[nagiosjam]

hello, finally works, thank you very much
at the end the problem is what we were saying, the nsclient.ini file must be very well ordered

so it did not work

Code: Select all

[/ Settings / NRPE / server]
NRPEServer = 1
allow arguments = 1
nasty_meta allow chars = 1
use SSL = 1

and so all ok

Code: Select all

NRPEServer = 1
[/ Settings / NRPE / server]
allow arguments = 1
nasty_meta allow chars = 1
use SSL = 1

thank you very much for the help, you can close the thread

Fixed external plugin check_tcp

But now I work the basic plugins check_nt
I get the following error
nSorolla address and connect to port 12489: Connection refused


For example: Server Uptime

CRITICAL 09-30-2016 9:13:26 0d 0h 8m 43s 3/3 nSorolla address and connect to port 12489: Connection refused

This is my configuration file nsclient.ini

Code: Select all

# If you want to fill this file avalible With all options run the following command:
# Nscp settings --add-defaults --generate --load-all
# If you want to activate a module and bring all its options in use:
# Nscp settings --activate-module <module name> --add-defaults
# For details run: nscp settings --help

I would suggest including the following settings above your [settings / NRPE / server section]:

Code: Select all

; Section for NSClient (NSClientServer.dll) (check_nt) protocol options.
[/settings/NSClient/server]

; ENABLE SSL ENCRYPTION - This option controls if SSL should be enabled.
use ssl = 0

; PERFORMANCE DATA - Send performance data back to Nagios (set this to 0 to remove all performance data).
performance data = 1

; PORT NUMBER - Port to use for check_nt.
port = 12489

I would also verify that Windows Firewall (or other firewalls) are not blocking traffic on port 12489

[nagiosjam]

Hello
The port 12489 is open.
If I have this configuration, the standard plugins check_nt work and check_tcp external plugin does not work, it gives this error when I run

Code: Select all

[Root @ server1 ~] # / usr / local / nagios / libexec / -H check_nrpe check_tcp -a -c server1 server1 80100200

If I make changes in the nsclient tell me file, I check_tcp external plugin works but let me run the standard plugins check_nt

Run the external plugin

Code: Select all

 / Usr / local / nagios / libexec / H check_nrpe check_tcp -a-c server1 server1 80100200
TCP OK - 0.000 second response time on port 80 | 'time' = 0.00039s

but the basic plugins do not work

Code: Select all

and this is the configuration in this case

check_tcp = scripts \ check_tcp.exe -H $ ARG1 $ -p $ ARG2 $ -w $ ARG3 $ -c $ ARG4 $


I've added

; Section for NSClient (NSClientServer.dll) (check_nt) protocol options.
[/ Settings / NSClient / server]

; ENABLE SSL encryption - SSL This option controls if Should be enabled.
use ssl = 0

; PERFORMANCE DATA - Send performance data back to Nagios (set to 0 to remove esta all performance data).
performance data = 1

; PORT NUMBER - Port to use for check_nt.
port = 12489

But I still fail the standard plugins, external plug-in this case works for me.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you very much for the help, see if you can continue helping me thanks

[rkennedy]

In your second configuration file, move this part -

Code: Select all

; undocumented key
NSClientServer = 1

To be under this part -

Code: Select all

; undocumented section
[/ Modules]

NSClientServer = 1 is what controls if check_nt is on or not. Once you make this change, and restart the service, both check_nrpe with exernal arguments and check_nt should work. If not, please post your current configuration file once again.

[nagiosjam]

Yes now
NSClient Server = 1
under [/ Modules]
It works !!!
Thank you very much, and you can close the thread

[dwhitfield]

Glad to hear it is resolved. I am going to lock the thread. Please feel free to post again if you have you another issue. Thank you for using the Nagios forums!
