AW: configuration help on remote hosts

[Schaffranneck, Sven (K-DOI-5/4)]

If use want to use nrpe -> Yes.
You even have the possibility to use send_nsca (passive-check) and
check_by_ssh (active-check, but high load on nagios-server and you must have
a sshd running on remote host)

you have to compile your nrpe and check_nrpe with "--enable-command-args".
In the nrpe.cfg you have to set: "dont_blame_nrpe=1". Now you can pass your
paramaters via check_nrpe to the daemon.

--------------------------
define command {
        command_name    check_nrpe_ssl_args
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nrpe_ssl -t 120 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c
$ARG1$ -a $ARG2$
}
---------------------------
define service {
    name                        nrpe_ssl_swap
    use                         generic-unix
    register                    0
    service_description         NRPE_Swap
    check_command               check_nrpe_ssl_args!check_swap!25% 10%
}
