host config - action_url - launch external program [wd-vc]

[Eli Stair]

Well, if you're using IE* there are innumerable hacks you could exploit usefully in this scenario to do what you want :)  Other than that, there are some functional Java SSH clients that you can have the URL load in your browser, or alternately use some server-side scripting to generate whatever you want.

You're looking along those lines?

Hello nagios users !
 
I have a small question if anybody has configured a action_url for a host which launches a local program of the windows machine where you have your browser.
 
I monitor several services of a host like http, https, ssh,cpu, .... If one of them appears in the service problems I open the host details and have just to click on the "extra host action" link and a local program like putty with the hostname as the parameter is launched. So I would get automatically a ssh session to that server.
 
Any advice would be great,
 
thanks,
Rainer
