I must be missing out on something very basic. Here's what I have
confirmed in my nagios.cfg :
check_external_commands=1
command_check_interval=-1
command_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd
My permissions on the directory "/usr/local/nagios/var/rw" seem correct too:
drwxrwsr-x 2 nagios nagcmd 4096 Dec 22 17:06 rw
cat /etc/group shows that both the required users are a part of the
correct group:
nagcmd:x:1239:nagios,apache
"locate nagios.cmd" returns a null showing that this file is not
accidentally being created in a wrong location.
getenforce gives "Disabled" so I guess it is not
damn-SELINUX-once-more day yet!
At this point I am stumped again! Any other checks I am missing out on?
Ian, I did peruse the list postings from last month on this topic
which is how I came up with these checks I outlined above. In case I
am still missing the relevant instruction it'd be great if you could
point me to the correct post that you might have in mind.
Thanks again guys; and I apologize if I am missing something clearly basic!
