tgriep

good catch

NSClientServer = 1

Now all services are reporting as they where before the upgrade of the nsclient

Only problem is that EXPLORER is still not reporting correctly

I am logged on to my Windows 10 computer and it is reporting critical explorer is not running

guys

keeps flickering between critical and warning still does not see explorer.

Command line

./check_nt -H 10.2.8.69 -p 12489 -v PROCSTATE -l Explorer.exe -s xxxxxxxxxxx
CRITICAL: Explorer.exe: not running

Strange one

Any ideas

It's probably case sensitive.

Try explorer.exe

root@tgcs017:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_nt -H 10.2.8.69 -p 12489 -v PROCSTATE -l explorer.exe -s xxxxxxxx
OK: all processes are ok.

This is strange from command line it is ok but not in Nagios gui

I just changes the entry in computer.cfg from Explorer.exe to explorer.exe

Lets see if that changes

Why do you want to monitor explorer.exe?

It is only running when a user is logged onto the windows system.

It is good now

Changing the Explorer.exe to explorer.exe seems to fix explorer

Lets see what happens over the next day or so

I monitor explorer so I know my computer is still logged on

I will post later with results
