I'm trying to setup NSCA following the instructions from the pdf: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/download/ ... _Setup.pdf

but I get

# ./to-nsca.sh "Hello there"
Could not open config file 'send_nsca.cfg' for reading.
Error: Config file 'send_nsca.cfg' contained errors...

I'm primarily trying to follow the "Nagios XI – Log Monitoring with Swatch" and this is one of the requirements.

Please help,
Eddie

Does the error give you any more direction than what you posted? Can you share your send_nsca.cfg file?

Where is to-nsca.sh placed? Looking over the documentation it appears you will want it to be in the same directory as send_nsca.cfg.
