Yes and now. Because these commands that you provided me, can be executed from Linux only, I need it to be executed from Windows machine.
But, this site might help me as well, because on the top of each command it gives the command ID (which I have), the only problem is that I'm getting permissions error.
The funniest thing is that I'm able to disable a specific host, but cannot disable hostgroup. And I'm using admin user

I will try to test it this week.

You should be able to do this from a PowerShell script.
And can you post your /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg file for us?

The problem is with the part I marked below in the command:
curl -d "cmd_typ=63&cmd_mod=2&
hostgroup=SOME NAME&btnSubmit=Commit" "
http://HOSTNAME/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi" -u "USER"
The CMD type I can take from the website you provided, but the rest I'm using a different command which shows instructions for each of the CMD types.
Anyways, I figured out how to use it, you can close this topic
Thanks.
