Check_nt returning Warning instead of CRITICAL

[vtadisina]

I am using nsclient on a windows server and trying to get the status of a process on the server using check_nt. I want check_nt to return CRITICAL when the process is not running on the server instead it is returning Warning. Is there something that I have to specify in the command line to report it as CRITICAL. This is the command that I am using

Code: Select all

check_nt -H xx.xx.xx.xx -s xxxxx -p 12489  -v PROCSTATE  -l xxxxxxxx.exe  -d SHOWALL

What version of NSClient are you using? I know in some cases upgrading to NSCP-0.4.1.90-x64 has fixed similar issues. That said, There are some pretty serious bugs in 4.3, so I would suggest 4.4 or higher. Of course, if you are already using a newer version, we will have to dig a little deeper.

I am using 0.4.1. I'll upgrade to 4.4 and see if that works.

Great, let us know how it goes.

I installed 0.50 but port 12489 connection refused. I tried to open the port but its not working. what can i do?

[dwhitfield]

on both the server and the client run nmap on that port and give the output. Do that locally if you are not your network admin (else you might get a call from your network admin).

Once we know where it's closed, we can work on opening it up.
