Hi,can anyone help me please?
I installed nagios core 4.3.4 on ubuntu 14.04
after adding a new host
i used some services like check load, total processes ,ping, html,zombie processes.
ping is doing fine, html showed port 80 connection refused HTTP CRITICAL - Unable to open TCP socket
the host im monitoring is a gateway, so could it be it doesnt have a tcp socket?

and for the rest services, im getting port 21 connection refused, i tried googling,there isnt anyone who faced this issue.
i tried ufw allow , also allowed from my nagios server ip.

PLEASE HELP :cry:

Can you ping the host from your core server?

What type of host are you monitoring and what agent are you using?

Is port 5666 open in the firewall on the remote computer?

in your nrpe.cfg you shared you have an allowed_hosts configuration which needs to contain the IP of your nagios server unless you are runninf NRPE from under xinetd

yours posted above currently says

Code: Select all

allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1
