[rkennedy]

Can you post your nsclient configuration file for us to take a look at?

Can you try running the command over the CLI and post the full input / output for us to review?

[lancewang]

I found a funny case when I run the commands in nagios xi host below.


[root@localhost libexec]# ./check_nt -H 10.1.192.207 -v CPULOAD -l 5,80,90
connect to address 10.1.192.207 and port 1248: Connection refused
could not fetch information from server

[root@localhost libexec]# ./check_nt -H 10.1.192.207 -v CPULOAD -l 5,80,90 -p 12489
CPU Load 0% (5 min average) | '5 min avg Load'=0%;80;90;0;100

Why the message feedback 'port 1248: Connection refused...'

The correct result when I check with check_nt -p 12489.
The nsc.ini file already define port number in 10.1.192.207 .

[NSClient]
;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
port=12489

And the 'netstat -an' command print in 10.1.192.207

What should I configure any files in Nagios xi host?

Thanks.

[rkennedy]

The default port for check_nt is 1248. That's why you need to define 12489 in your command.

Navigate to Configure -> Core Config Manager -> ### Services -> Find the service that is reporting the 'NSClient - ERROR: Invalid password' error.

Can you post a screenshot of the common settings?

Hi,

I study in Nagios core upgrade to Nagios XI.
We had over 300 hosts to monitor.
We'll configure in /usr/local/nagios/etc/static manually.
And I implement with Managing-Config-Files-Manually-With-Nagios-XI.pdf, but another problems found.
So I just fix simpler case to make monitoring platform work.

I configured the nsc.ini file form reomot client here below.

[NSClient]
;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
; This is the port the NSClientListener.dll will listen to.
port=1248
;

The message show 'connect to address 10.1.192.207 and port 12489: Connection refused'.

How can I fix it.
Thanks,

Best Regards,
Lancewang

[rkennedy]

[NSClient]
;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
; This is the port the NSClientListener.dll will listen to.
port=1248
;

This line should read port=12489, can you adjust it as needed and restart your NSClient++ service? Once that is done, force check your services and let us know the result.

[lancewang]

Hi,

The nsc.ini file original define port number in remote hosts.
I will restart nsc service when I change any config file.

[NSClient]
;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
port=12489

And the 'netstat -an' command print in 10.1.192.207

But the error message show 'NSClient - ERROR: Invalid password'.
What happen problems are in NSClient hosts?

[lancewang]

Hi,

I monitored the NSClient host with Nagios core and Nagios XI at the same time.
Nagios core had correct message but Nagios XI not.
The nsc.ini file defined allowed hosts in NSClient host .

[Settings]
allowed_hosts=10.1.192.0/24 ####(Nagios core and Nagios XI subnet)

And they configured the same content in hosts.cfg and services.cfg.
I don't know why it is.

Thanks,

Best Regards,

[rkennedy]

I think there your XI command definition may be sending a password, can you take a look at the command that these services are using?

Can you also paste the Service Definition for one of the 'Invalid Password' checks?
