/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H <ip if windows server> -n -c check-ad-account -a LockedOut "ou=MYSPECIFICOU,dc=MYDOMAIN,dc=com"
Sorry for taking so long to reply.
Alright, so when I run the command the way you wrote it (substituting my values of course), my terminal freezes for a second, and then takes on the appearance of a telnet/ssh session.
I.e.:
Code: Select all
root:
root: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H <ip if windows server> -n -c check-ad-account -a LockedOut "ou=MYSPECIFICOU,dc=MYDOMAIN,dc=com"
>

Is this what we want it to do?

This was from your first post:

Can you please upload your nsc.ini or nsclient.ini file so we can see how the command is defined on the windows box.

Alright, this is an exact copy of my nsclient.ini on the server in question.

This config is quite small. You are missing some important entries. For example, you are missing the [/settings/external scripts/wrappings] section:
[/settings/external scripts/wrappings]
; BATCH FILE WRAPPING -
bat = scripts\\%SCRIPT% %ARGS%
; POWERSHELL WRAPPING -
ps1 = cmd /c echo scripts\\%SCRIPT% %ARGS%; exit($lastexitcode) | powershell.exe -command -
; VISUAL BASIC WRAPPING -
vbs = cscript.exe //T:30 //NoLogo scripts\\lib\\wrapper.vbs %SCRIPT% %ARGS%
You may need to run in the CMD (see the top portion of the file):
Code: Select all
nscp settings --generate --add-defaults --load-all
then restart the NSClient++ service.

Sorry for the really lame question, but where exactly do I run that command from?
Thank you

Run this on your Windows server from the NSClient directory (in a command window). There is an nscp.exe file in that directory.

Alright so when I run this, a secondary cmd box pops up that says:
Code: Select all
Failed to parse host NAGIOSSERVERNAME. No such host is known.

Can you post some screenshots to show us how this cmd popup box is appearing.

It pops up right after I run the command, says the same thing like 3 times, then goes away.

So just to be sure, do the following, open a cmd prompt on the windows server and run:
Code: Select all
cd path\to\install\dir
nscp settings --generate --add-defaults --load-all
As an example, my cd command was directed thusly:
I'm not sure why you would be getting a failure from that command, as it is only intended to expand your config file (not necessary with nsclient++ 0.3.9.x).
