We have upgraded to the nsclient 0.4.3.1 from 0.3.9 as we wanted real time event log monitoring. we were using couple of external scripts like check_winfile & check_logfiles amongst others to perform few checks. After we have upgraded to 0.4.3.1 I don't see the section external scripts in the new nsclient.ini file, when I add them under external scripts/alias section the checks fail with a message saying the commands are not defined. Please let me know the settings to enable external script checks and also how we can perform real time event log monitoring. I did go through some posts in the forum and the documentation but it is very confusing.
