Hi,

I've set up Nagios to try and improve on my current Mon setup (improved
reporting etc) and like what I have so far after 1 day. 

1. The basic http/ping checks are coming back as OK but allocates all the
time as undetermined (see below) rather than up. - where am I going wrong?

Host % Time Up % Time Down % Time Unreachable % Time Undetermined 
crazyhorse 0.000% (0.000%) 0.000% (0.000%) 0.000% (0.000%) 100.000% 

2. I had modified a script under Mon to check for Citrix connectivity by
telneting to port 1494 and expecting ICA back as a successful connection. -
How could I do this under Nagios?

3 Oracle checking - I see the check_oracle utility, and can run it from the
command line with the --login dbname option and the up/down status comes
back - how am I supposed to set this up in the host.cfg, hostgroup.cfg set
of files etc? I tried, but it kept failing the -v option when loading
Nagios. - any help gratefully received.

External Commands - how do I run these from the secured website - can't find
a reference in the docs



Regards

SM²
