The permissions you previously showed show permissions for appuser group but here you have nagios added to the appusr group

I am out of the usual troubleshooting options.

Clearly the nagios user on the 192.168.105.93 server does not have access to the file, why that is based on what you have posted I'm not sure.

to clarify one thing, when you posted this, was this on the remote 192.168.105.93 server?

I ask because it wouldn't be very common to have a nagcmd user on a non-nagios server

Please show the output of the following from the client machine

Code: Select all

su nagios -c "ls -l /dir/dir/dir/logs/log.log"

Clearly the nagios user cannot see the file.

However, you are likely going to have to work this out with the security team as there is no way for us to know why that would be.

The nagios user is going to need to be able to see the file in order for the check to work properly
