I tried running those commands but FirewallD is not running.

I'm not sure what to use under libexec. I'm trying to define services that will mimic what I have through NCPA. I just want to monitor disk, mem and cpu like I do on all my other servers. But locally on this linux server.

Is this link missing the examples
https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... linux.html

The sample configuration entries below reference objects that are defined in the sample config files (commands.cfg, templates.cfg, etc.) that are installed if you follow the quickstart. <----There is nothing listed. I need examples to go off of for cpu, mem and disk

There is one check_ncpa.py plugin that communicates with the NCPA agent on the other end, this needs to be installed on your Nagios Core server.

https://www.nagios.org/ncpa/getting-started.php#linux
Jump to the Active Checks (check_ncpa.py) section and it provides different examples.

That is not the problem. I'm trying to monitor my core server. I want to monitor it like I monitor all my other servers. I want to add the processor, memory and hard disk just like I did through NCPA on all the other servers. But I don't know the proper syntax for the core localhost.cfg file to do this.

There is no examples to go off of that make sense to me. Does anyone have any examples of their core server localhost.cfg with processor, memory and hard disk checks

Simply remove all the "localhost' examples that exist. Then treat your local server just like any one of the other clients, use the same configs you use for your other servers.

Thank You Box329. I did what you recommended and that worked. You were right, I was reinventing the wheel when I just needed to setup NCPA and change around some syntax and it worked out. Thank You. Ticket Completed
