check_radius

[Rabbie Zalaf]

Hi All,

This is my first post so my appologies if I state anything stupid.

I wrote the following script and placed it into libexec.

#!/bin/bash
PREFIX=/usr/bin

set `$PREFIX/radpwtst -trace 4 $USER1$/check_radius -s $1 -secret $2 -noacct
-auth_port $3 -user $4 -password $5 -called_station_id $6 | tail -1`

if [ $1 = OK ] ; then
  echo "OK"
else
  echo "CRITICAL - No reply"
fi

Basically it sends a RADIUS authentication request to a radius server and
will either come back with OK or No reply... I have tested the script and it
works perfectly, but when I Integrate it with nagios, like this:

define service{
        use                             generic-service         ; Name of
service template to use

        host_name		x.x.x.x
        service_description             RADIUS 
        is_volatile                     0 
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              3 
        normal_check_interval           3 
        retry_check_interval            1
        contact_groups                  admins
        notification_interval           120
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            u,c,r 
        check_command
check_radius!mysecret!1645!username!password!0198xxxxxx
        } 

My web interface in nagios shows a green light and says that everything is
ok... even when the response is CRITICAL...

How do I make nagios alarm when the script returns a CRITICAL error?

Thanks in advance for any help you may offer.
