@cdienger are you sure that check_radius is equal to check_radius_adv?

It seams to me that the plugins are under control from NagiosXi:
https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... issues/271
check_radius_adv is not owned by us. I'm checking if we want to take ownership. If not, there's nothing I can do.
@SundanceRaphael What John was saying is that we as in this repository are not the owners of that plugin. This all needs to be taken care of on the Nagios XI side of things. I'll filed an internal bug report regarding your situation (#12044), and we'll investigate it further in-house. In the meantime, you may want to post on the Nagios Support Forum as that is the proper place for all of the Enterprise products' support. Thanks!
Under exchange.nagios.org there are to different plugins listed check_radius and check_radius_adv.

BTW check_radius (in plugins) seams to have a problem at compiling to detect Freeradius version 3.X.X and using pam_radius.so as client.

Code: Select all

configure: WARNING: Skipping radius plugin
configure: WARNING: install radius libs to compile this plugin (see REQUIREMENTS).

I checked on the internal bug report, and on July 1 our devs mentioned that the likely route to take is to either move to check_radius.pl or write a replacement of our own. The former option sounds more likely, but they are still discussing it.

I posted this to your GitHub issue:

Can you please refer to the following KB article, I shows how to install the pre-requisites for the radius plugin:

https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=569

You should then be able to compile.
