Best Nagios Plugins for Mixed Linux/Windows Monitoring (Web, Logs, SSL, MySQL)

Post by alzahbya1 »

I'm setting up Nagios to monitor a mix of Linux servers, a few Windows machines, and some web services (HTTP, SSL, MySQL, disk/memory usage, and basic logs). What are the best plugins you recommend for this setup — especially for log monitoring and SSL expiry alerts?

You have https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/l ... s-787.html for using log monitoring.

And you can use check_http plugin for cert expiratoin as you can see https://kifarunix.com/monitor-ssl-tls-c ... th-nagios/
