yes like i mentioned before, i saved the plugin the the scripts folder of NSClient, copied the definition that was given into my nsc.ini file under [External Scripts], then finally restart NSClient. Ran the command on the nagios machine :
Code: Select all
./check_nrpe -H 10.100.50.18 -p 5666 -c check_winfile -a '--target C:\Program Files\NSClient++\scripts --filter "age gt -5 minutes" --critical 0'
with the output:
Code: Select all
UNKNOWN: No handler for that command
checked my nsclient.log file :
Code: Select all
2013-07-26 12:33:39: message:NSClient++.cpp:1157: No handler for command: 'check_winfile'
2013-07-26 12:33:39: message:include\NSCHelper.cpp:238: No handler for command 'check_winfile'.
UPDATE: My apologies, my boss confused me, the destination im going to be checking is C:\ip\hugco. There is nothing in there yet, but the whole focus is to get it working to check that location

ok, so i set up a service check that looks like this:
Code: Select all
define service {
host_name sfftp207
service_description Check Win File
use generic-service
check_command check_nrpe!check_winfile!-a '--target C:\ip\hugco --filter "age gt -5 minutes" --critical 0'
}
reset nagios, and get this as output on the nagios website:
Code: Select all
FILE UNKNOWN - Target does not exist

Are you sure the file:
Exists? Does it have an extension?

that is indeed the right file, its empty, but it exists. I ran it off the nagios machine like so :
Code: Select all
./check_nrpe -H 10.100.50.18 -p 5666 -c check_winfile -a '--target C:\ip\hugco --filter "age gt -5 minutes" --critical 0'
with the output :
Code: Select all
FILE OK - 0 files to consider|'selected files'=0;;0; 'all files'=0 'deleted files'=0

Since it seems to work via cli, can you post what your check_nrpe command definition is please? I didn't see it earlier and we might just be missing something small there.
