Add host account

Post by GADOI »

hello:
used the wizard and pointed to a webserver but are getting access is denied on some services. Ran the Run Check command in the core Config manager and received:
[[email protected] ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H 172.16.0.247 -s "" -p 12489 -v CPULOAD -l 5,80,90 connect to address 172.16.0.247 and port 12489: Connection refused could not fetch information from server

How do I specify a local server account so that nagiosxi can access the counters on that server?

Here is the command view:

$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -s "$ARG1$" -p 12489 -v $ARG2$ $ARG3$ $ARG4$
Thanks

Did you follow the instructions at https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=127 ? Be sure not to be confused about the check_nt instructions versus the other instructions.
