Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

I've successfully installed NagiosXI demo version on centos 5 and it worked fine, I was able to test everything. its all good.

I want to customize the Nagios XI system and following is my requirement.

1. I want to put cap on number of host to be added by a user.
Suppose admin gives him 10 credit then user should be able to add up to 10 host only.

2. I want to authenticate NagiosXI user from another application so that my application will pass some parameters to NagiosXI
and it should return me verified / not verified information back to my application.

Any pointer regrading this will be very helpful, I tried working on code but its all encrypted (authentication and add host module).
So there isn't much scope for me. Please tell me if the above things are doable.

Thank you in advance.

1. There is currently no way to set a cap on the number of hosts a user can add.
2. Regarding authentication, we have a component to integrate Nagios XI with LDAP/Active Directory authentication, but if that doesn't work for you I'm not sure there are any other options at this time.

Can you please tell me the component name to directory authentication.
Also how can i initialize the Nagios XI session from another application, if I am able to authenticate from my application.
So that i could access all the nagios XI pages after authentication.

Thanks

Active directory component:

LDAP Auth component:

Hello,


I am testing the nagios XI AD integration. While configuring UserDN i am getting a popup saying that " [USERNAME] pattern not found in user DN".

UserDN given as CN=Nishanth M,OU=TEST, OU=TEST1,OU=TEST2,DC=test,DC=testroot,DC=net

Can you please help me ????

I think the brackets actually need to be in there, like the example below:

cn=[USERNAME],cn=users,dc=acme,dc=com

It's also probably worth mentioning, these components provide LDAP and AD integration on a very basic level. The users still need to exist in XI for them to use their unified login, but the password credential will be used from the server instead of Nagios XI. We don't have the ability to sync with the LDAP or AD servers for userlists yet.
