Which particular mapping utility are you using? It sounds like you are using NagVis and you haven't installed or configured the Nagios NDOUtils package, but without more information I can only really guess.

You'll have to identify what plugin is being run for that check, but it's most likely check_icmp. You can give a plugin root permissions with the following command.

(This assumes that your plugins are located in /usr/local/nagios/libexec)

Code: Select all

chmod u+s /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_icmp
chmod u+s allows a script or plugin to always run with root permissions. There are a few plugins that may need to do that.
