PING DUPLICATES and Checks disables

Hi, i'm a student and i'm studying network monitoring and i'm trying to use nagios 3.
For now i'm trying nagios on the network of my department.
I'm a beginner so my question could be really silly.
1)i got WARNING: PING WARNING - DUPLICATES FOUND!
where i do wrong?
2)A red cross appears near some services, "Checks of this host have been disables".
How can i fix it?
Thanks!

Hmm, this is a strange error. Have you verified your configuration files? Run the following from the CLI and let us know if you see any errors:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
Is this just a standard check_ping service?

from /etc/nagios3/conf.d/services_nagios2.cfg
Code: Select all
define service {

normal_check_interval 1
retry_check_interval 1
notification_interval 0

}
from /etc/nagios-plugins/config/ping.cfg
Code: Select all
define_command{

command_line /urs/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$

What was returned when you ran:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
Or from where your nagios bin is to the nagios.cfg.

there is no nagios directory inside /usr/local/

Or from where your nagios bin is to the nagios.cfg.
Please find your nagios bin, and then add the -v after the directory path, then point the rest of it towards the nagios.cfg as shown in the example above. This is how you verify your configuration files against things like what you are seeing.

Do you get the same error if you use "check_icmp" instead of "check_ping"? Have you tried switching from NAT-ed to Bridged connection and back to see if this is going to resolve the issue? Do you have more than one NIC?

Ok, the problem was related with a double NIC of virtual machine that i was using.
So i decided to install nagios3 directly on the real machine(with one NIC), the ping duplicates issue is gone, but:
some host seems to be down(with network's structure unchanged).
Using another virtual machine i installed an other distro of linux e then nagios3 and the host were all up.
If i ping from the machine an host marked as down i get:
Code: Select all
ping 192.168.121.1
PING 192.168.121.1 (192.168.121.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

....
From the virtual machine i get:
Code: Select all
PING 192.168.121.1 (192.168.121.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.121.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=128 time=18.9 ms

64 bytes from 192.168.121.1: icmp_req=3 ttl=128 time=33.7 ms
....
How can i fix that?

Are you pinging another virtual device on that host machine? It seems that it might be an issue with routes. Are your virtual network and the physical network in similar address space, ie 192.168.10.xxx and 192.168.15.xxx? Possibly where your physical network could have existing routes for your virtual address space that you do not directly know of our use?
