Root user sending emails

[colbyhart]

The emails I receive from Nagios are from Root User. Is there any way to change this?

[lmiltchev]

What do you have as the "Send Mail From" address in

Code: Select all

Admin -> Manage Email Settings

Also, do you have the hostname set on your server to something other than localhost or localhost.localdomain?

Code: Select all

hostname

[colbyhart]

send from = Nagios XI
System name localhost

the "send from" should be a full email address.

Also, you should set your hostname to be the actual machine name in /etc/sysconfig/network , such as

nagiosxi.yourdomain.com
