alert when service is on

[Aaron Segura]

Perhaps use the 'negate' plugin in order to reverse the result of the
check?

Subject: [Nagios-users] alert when service is on

I would like an alert when someone logs into a monitored XP machine, but
I can't figure out how to do it.  Does anyone have an easy method?
Using nagios-1.3 on debian Sarge with nsclient++ on XP+sp2.

I tried the following checkcommands.cfg + services.cfg entries, which
show when someone logs in (via rdeskto), but I only want an alert when
these processes are active, which should rarely happen.  It's like I
only want an alert when the service is up.
=============================
snip from services.cfg
=============================
# Service definition
define service{
       use                             generic-service         ; Name of
service template to use

       host_name                       buildxp.eng
       service_description             Live_Rdesktop_Session
       is_volatile                     0
       check_period                    24x7
       max_check_attempts              3

       retry_check_interval            1
       contact_groups                  linux-admins
       notification_interval           120
       notification_period             24x7
       notification_options            w,u,c,r
       check_command
check_win_process!buildxp.eng!rdpclip.exe,wscntfy.exe,explorer.exe
       }
