Nagios Support Forum

Hello,
I am new to nagios and is seeing its potential in IT monitoring.

I have a site that works fine and is even replying to ICMP request. Now, this internal site is throwing "CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 30 seconds" alarm. Why would a monitoring raise this kind of alarm when the site is working fine and healthy? I mean, what should I be checking on the site?

Any reply is greatly appreciated.

Are these sites being monitored via the NSClient++ or NRPE agent? That error is usually specific to one of those agents. Can you share which version of NSClient or NRPE the remote machine is using?

Here's our common solutions document for NRPE (Refer to Section I):
