Nagios Support Forum

Hey,
we updated nagios and installed a complete new instance, created ssh keys and users and added hosts/services etc.
Now when I try to connect via winscp to add more plugins I get the typical network error: "server unexpectedly closed network connection"

That usually indicated and issue in the ssh cfg I think, but I compared it with the older version 3.1.1 and the now running 3.5.1.

Any way I can correct this?

Thanks a lot

I'm assuming both the 3.1.1 and 3.5.1 version of Nagios Core were installed via OS specific packages?

Is the ownership of the underlying folders different between those two versions? That'd be my first guess.

I would also check the/var/log/messages and /var/log/secure while you try to make the connection:

tail -f /var/log/messages
tail -f /var/log/secure

Thanks a lot

I am getting:

sshd error: could not load host key: /etc/ssh/sshd_rsa_key and dsa_key

Do I need to recreate the ssh keys?

Thanks

I think, I got it.

I re-generated ssh keys and a new ssl cert, now I can shh into the box again

thanks

Glad it's resolved, closing
