Did you follow everything that was mentioned in the Bobby Bradshaw
thread? =20
Do you have nsclient (Nagios Agent) running on your remote machine? =20

I see that you have the above line with a comment. This will make it
hard to run correctly. Also have you tried -p 1250 as suggested in the
Bobby Bradshaw thread. =20

Hi,



Since you mentioned that you have installed the plugins in a different
location, did you make change to the $USER1$ variable to point it to the
correct location? To set the variable $USER1$ to /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/
you need to edit the resource.cfg.



You can also try executing the command to see if it actually works. Just go
to where the check_nt is located and run it. That would eliminate a few
things.



HTH,



Jon

hi all, 



I have the same problem as Bobby Bradshaw (from whom I quoted the message
below) : 


My Nagios setup is:
Nagios v1.3 (October 24, 2004)
Nagios plugins v1.4.1


I have Nagios running correctly, sending notifications, checking ping and
HTTP on several hosts. BUT I have exactly the same problem as Bobby Bradshaw
which is the fact that I can't get Nagios to run "./check_nt -H
192.168.1.111 -v UPTIME" command without getting a "CRITICAL - Socket
timeout after 10 seconds" error or any of the check_nt commands without an
error. I have the Nsclient 2.01 on my Windows NT host. 



The error I have is the fact that the system doesn't find the check_nt
service BUT I have installed it in the /usr/local/nagios/libexec/ file, in
fact in my case I changed the path to /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/ since it's
where the services are located in my configuration. 



I have exactly the same question as Bobby Brawn : Is there better
documentation than what is provided with Nsclient? Can I get some pointers
on ALL the cfg files that I have to edit to get the check_nt command to
work.

Bobby Bradshaw, I saw that u solved your problem, can u tell how did u do ?
If anyone has an idea, please advise. Thanks in advance !!
