Problem with monitor windows host

[Leeya_Arabi]

Hi

I am new to Nagios Core and I had some problem.

1) I had install Nagios Core in Ubuntu 10.10 and NSclient++ in windows 7
2) After finished installation, Nagios can't detect and monitor windows host/client

Can somebody explain and solve my problem ....... please

Nagios doesn't detect hosts you need to configure them manually via the configuration files, this should help you on your way http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagi ... n/toc.html.

I need to installed nagios again on my desktop...
When I used command "sudo make install"

I got some problem such below..

/usr/bin/install: omitting directory `includes/rss/extlib'
/usr/bin/install: omitting directory `includes/rss/htdocs'
/usr/bin/install: omitting directory `includes/rss/scripts'
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nagios/Downloads/nagios/html'
make: *** [install] Error 2
nagios@nagios-server:~/Downloads/nagios$

Please give me some suggestion how to solve this error.

I feel like you've omitted a key piece of information... I can't tell from that text dump what the installer was looking for when it failed. Can you post more info from the install?

Thank you for replying. I have been able to resolve the " nagios make error " using the command below,

./configure

sed -i 's:for file in includes/rss/\*;:for file in includes/rss/\*.\*;:g' ./html/Makefile
sed -i 's:for file in includes/rss/extlib/\*;:for file in includes/rss/extlib/\*.\*;:g' ./html/Makefile
and then
make fullinstall


but now I have new error in perfdata PNP

I'm afraid troubleshooting pnp sort of falls out of my realm of knowledge hopefully there's some one else who knows more.

Unfortunately that's outside of what I know as well, I've never used pnp.
