I meant maybe you have localhost blocked for some reason, but yea I guess that was somewhat of a dumb question on my part :D
Here's a smarter question: Would you have enabled IPv6 at all? Take a look at /etc/hosts and see if maybe localhost is preferring IPv6 over IPv4. Try running "dig localhost" and post the output.
I'd be willing to bet it works with 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost.

/etc/hosts from monitored host:
Code: Select all
127.0.0.1 localhost
172.17.24.12 domena-wa
192.168.1.4 domena-pn
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
and
dig localhost
Code: Select all
root@domena-wa:~# dig localhost

Ok, I configured nrpe and commands for monitoring servers with IPCop (I'll put later procedure - HOWTO, because it may be difficult
).
Back to hardware raid monitoring, the issue is still actual

Are you saying the current issue with monitoring IPCop with NRPE is fixed? If so I'll be closing this thread as solved. If not, did using 127.0.0.1 work for you?

Hi, I configured IPCop monitoring, if you want I'll write what I've done to configure it.
I'll open new thread for issue with monitoring hardware raid because I still get UNKNOWN message...

Write-ups and how-tos are always welcome. We can leave this thread open for the write-up, or you can always submit it to the
nagios exchange.

I would also definitely recommend posting it on a blog, or source such as that, and then linking it and submitting a post to our exchange site, that way, users who are looking to do this and are searching through exchange will happen upon it as well.

Ok, Procedure is ready. Sorry for my bad english but I think it's clear to understand
The NRPE-IPCop plugin can be downloaded from
http://ipcop.stankowic-development.net/index_en.php (it has more than 2MB so I can't attach it here).
EDIT:
I'd like to register at exchange.nagios.org but when I put Register button it shows me ReCaptcha ERROR but on the site I can't see any captcha field (Chromium, Forefox, IE11).
