P.S.:

[root at monitor2 src]# vi /var/log/messages


Dec 29 18:35:12 monitor2 nsca[22824]: No variable value specified in 
config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg' - Line 138

Dec 29 20:06:54 monitor2 nsca[24571]: No variable value specified in 
config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg' - Line 138

Dec 29 20:18:46 monitor2 nsca[24778]: Could not open config file 
'/usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg' for reading

Dec 29 20:25:21 monitor2 nsca[24911]: Could not open config file 
'/usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg' for reading


[root at monitor1 Snmp-Scripts]# echo -e 
"monitor1\tService\tServiceOutput\tPerformanceData\n" | ./send_nsca 
monitor2 -c /root/Snmp-Scripts/send_nsca.cfg
Error: Server closed connection before init packet was received
Error: Could not read init packet from server
Then, in monitor2 :/var/log/messages:
Dec 29 21:02:28 monitor2 nsca[25145]: Could not open config file 
'/usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg' for reading
but this time I 've set the complaining line in file :
[root at monitor2 src]# vi /usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg
