send_nsca

[Volker.Aust at premiere.de]

Hi Dan,

send_nsca is reading the message from stdin. You have to execute something
like:

echo -e "hal9000\tremote_report\t0\tkewl" | ./send_nsca 10.24.7.176 -to 60
-c send_nsca.cfg

Or you write a short shell script like:

#!/bin/sh
#
HOST=$1; shift
SERVICE=$1; shift
STATUS=$1; shift
#
# abschicken
/bin/echo -e "${HOST}\t${SERVICE}\t${STATUS}\t$*" | /path-to/send_nsca
10.24.7.176 -to 60 -c /path-to/send_nsca.cfg

This script you can call with:

send_nsca.sh hal9000 remote_report 0 kwel

Hope this helps.
