Cannot ping with APAN

[Jesús Oliván]

Already ot host address put in hosts.cfg and i'm using $HOSTNAME$ in apan
script, but it doesnt't work =(

But i can view the icon now, thx a lot!

i'm trying to execute apan.sh in cmd line and this is what it returns to me:

debian:/usr/local/nagios/etc# ../apan/apan.sh ping PDC "ping" 100 100.0,20%
500.0,60%
(standard_in) 1: parse error

Hi,

1 - Apan does not use the HOSTADDRESS for ping, insted it uses the HOSTNAME
for ping, so you have to put the address in the "hosts" file on the /etc
directory. Use the same name you use in nagios, and this will work.

2 - are this lines in the cgi.cfg? or are in a separte file, which the
cgi.cfg calls ? like this :

in cgi.cfg :
xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/serviceextinfo.cfg

and in the serviceextinfo.cfg

	        define serviceextinfo{
	        host_name               PDC
	        service_description     ping
	        notes_url
	/nagios/cgi-bin/apan.cgi?host=PDC&service=ping
	        icon_image              graph.png
	        icon_image_alt          View graphs
	}
