[Nagiosplug-devel] nagios Plusgins / Solaris 7

[Stanley Hopcroft]

Dear Sir,

I am sorry to answer so late in the game but is the problem that 
check_ping won't build ?

The only show stopper in the configure output was the failure to find 
the ping command.

If that is the case, all I can suggest are some kludgy workarounds after 
you have determined the path to ping on the problem host.

1 first kludge

Configure _seems_ to be looking in your $PATH (ie the user you have 
used to build plugins that is prob not too disimilar to the nagios 
user) for ping.

Is it there ?
  Yes => I give up; see option 2.
  No  => make sure it is (ln or ln -s come to mind)

You may also be able to use the configure --with-ping-command to give a 
complete ping command with path and options/args.
  
2 not such a kludge

Forget about it. check_ping has certain disads anyway. Try check_icmp.
You'll prob need to search the archives to find it. Andreas Ericsson is 
the author and maintainer.

HTH,

If check_ping is not actually the problem, please repost. I can't see 
any problems with openSSL; is that the problem - not building check_hhtp 
with SSL support ?

Yours sincerely.
