Using NRPE to Count Users Signed in Help

[hglod]

I have the updated one attached.

But another question, am I able to use this:

command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10

Found in my nrpe config? Do I have to use an external script to monitor users on a Windows machine?

I see the problem

You have this

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]

allow nasty characters = 1
allow arguments=true
;check_user_count = check_user_count.bat
check_users=scripts\\perl\\check_users.exe $ARG1$ $ARG2$ "$ARG3$"

and what you need is this

Code: Select all

[/settings/external scripts]

allow nasty characters = 1
allow arguments=true

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]
;check_user_count = check_user_count.bat
check_users=scripts\\perl\\check_users.exe $ARG1$ $ARG2$ "$ARG3$"

Awesome so that worked for the -a flag error. But we are back at the original error when I run "./check_nrpe -H 192.168.0.99 -c check_users -a 2 3 'cadprod.com\administrator' ":

Can you run this from the windows command line?

Code: Select all

scripts\perl\check_users.exe 2 3 "cadprod.com\administrator"

Same error:

Ok, you are getting the correct response at the nagios server then, now you have an issue with the plugin, you need to maybe run the help command or something on the plugin as to make sure you are passing the arguments properly.

Thank you Scott but another question. I able to use this in my nrpe config file to monitor users on a Windows machine?

command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10

No that's not possible
