UNIX monitoring Windows using Nagios Core

[salukuri]

I'm trying to monitor a windows server from Red Hat UNIX . . . how do I open the port 12489

NSClient has already been installed on the Windows server but, still cannot connect and communicate.

Any help would be appreciated

Just to be clear? Do you wish to open this port on your windows server or Red Hat?

If Red Hat,see instructions below...

To check the current firewall rules, use this command:

Code: Select all

sudo iptables -L

Starting with CentOS and RHEL 7, firewall rule settings are managed by firewalld service daemon. A command-line client called firewall-cmd can talk to this daemon to update firewall rules permanently.

To open up a new port (e.g., TCP/80) permanently, use these commands:

Code: Select all

$ sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=80/tcp --permanent

Code: Select all

$ sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Check the updated rules with:

Code: Select all

$ firewall-cmd --list-all
