so to be clear, you are attempting to send to a hotmail account? Are you using any ISP smtp relay, or attempting to send directly to hotmail? Often times, hotmail will just reject\delete the email if your IP address does not have a domain and correct dns records setup, is this already done?

If you are using postfix, then you should be receiving logs concerning the mailing attempts. what is the output of:

Well, your connection to your mail server is (obviously) timing out. Are you sure your mail server does not require smtp authentication, or forcing use of an encrypted connection?

I fixed the problem changing host name /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts with a shorter name, and now it works; anyway i changed the destination mail, in gmail 'couse hotmail blocks everything.
I have another question, it's possible to mark as UP(but in yellow) an host that has a ping time beyond a choosen threshold?

Not without modifying the cgi source, and this would likely alter for all OK\warning states not just ping. I would not likely suggest this.

I'm trying to monitoring the HTTP response time, but with
Code: Select all
check_command check_http!192.168.120.1!5!8
Nagios service:
HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 200 OK - 715 bytes in 0,001 second response time
but 192.168.120.1 is down!
am i using the wrong plugin for the HTTP response?

What about "192.168.120.1" is down? The entire server? Can you show us how you have the check_http command defined in your commands.cfg?
