Nagios Support Forum

Dear Team,

I am a new user of Nagios XI.

I need a plugin and how I can set it up to connect to a log file on a system.

Kindly help with quick resolution.

This really depends on what you want to do with the logfile, search contents, or check update time, etc.

Thank you for the response.

I want to actually monitor critical error.

Best regards,

My first incline is to recommend Nagios Log Server as this is exactly designed to do this

What defines a critical error may need to be defined.

Depending on the system you can also use something like this plugin

I just setup the nagios log server. However, I am unable to login through the web interface with my credential, although i can login with default credential (username: root password: nagiosls) through putty.

How can I resolve the issue.

Best regards,
