Nagios HTTP monitoring

[GJP]

Hi Jerad,

If you mean http auth, this is what I use.

The check_command in the service definition:

check_command		check_http_auth!host.example.com!/path!user:password

And the command definition.

define command{
        command_name    check_http_auth
        command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H $ARG1$ -u 
$ARG2$ -a $ARG3$
        }

But if you mean authentication within a windows AD domain. Maybe Samba can 
help. Because then you can make your linux server a member of the AD domain.

Regards,

Gerard.
