I am using this command found on this link :
http://sites.box293.com/nagios/guides/c ... es-folders
Code: Select all
check_nrpe -H 192.168.142.1 -t 30 -c check_files -a path='C:\myFolder' pattern=*.* 'critical=count>0' top-syntax='${status}: ${problem_count}/${count} files' 'empty-state=ok'
When i do it on my empty folder ( i want to be sure that he is empty (that's why i want to manage him ^^), i got an Unknow : no file found.
Do you know how to correct it ?
Thanks for you eventually answer

This sounds like your Nagios version. I'm looking for your NSClient version on the Windows machine.

I just looked at your command again and I think you are missing a \ in the drive location
Instead of
Code: Select all
check_nrpe -H 192.168.142.1 -t 30 -c check_files -a path='C:\myFolder' pattern=*.* 'critical=count>0' top-syntax='${status}: ${problem_count}/${count} files' 'empty-state=ok'
should be
Code: Select all
check_nrpe -H 192.168.142.1 -t 30 -c check_files -a path='C:\\myFolder' pattern=*.* 'critical=count>0' top-syntax='${status}: ${problem_count}/${count} files' 'empty-state=ok'

More research and it looks like there is a bug in NSClient in several versions, I just found this:

According to one poster they resolved the issue by updating to 0.5.x and changing the order to:
Code: Select all
check_nrpe -H 192.168.142.1 -t 30 -c check_files -a path='C:\\myFolder' pattern=*.* 'critical=count>0' 'empty-state=ok' top-syntax='${status}: ${problem_count}/${count} files'
