Hi,

There is a requirement to give special character * (star) in the service description, but it is giving illegal character error.

Can you let us know what are the allowed special characters in Nagios service description ?

The following are not allowed in object names (hosts/service/hostgroups, etc.)

Code: Select all

`~!$%^&*|'"<>?,()=
