Monitor web server run multiple virtual web site

[Victor Lanza]

Yes, but this only works with those sites that use basic authentication..and
as far as I understand, no one has been able to get the windows
authentication to work with the check_http plugin..

Thanks though.. I guess I can a simple ping on those sites that I can't use
check_http with

Have you tried using -a with check_http?


-a, --authorization=AUTH_PAIR
   Username:password on sites with basic authentication

Thanks for the reply,

Sorry I didn't reply earlier but I had email problems..I've tried your
suggestion already, the issue I face with that is that some of these
virtual
sites require authentication, some simple and some Windows
Authentication.

This causes Nagios to get a "...401 unauthorized" error message (since
check_http can only handle simple authentication).

Is there no way to just check in IIS if the site is in an started or
stopped
state? I think this would be the ideal solution..

Thanks again,

Victor..

suggestion --

define host {
	host_name	websites
	alias		Virtual Site Container
	address		127.0.0.1
	...
}

define service {
	host_name	websites
	service_description	site-10.10.5.111
	check_command		check_http_sites!10.10.5.111
	...
}
define service {
	host_name	websites
	service_description	site-othersite
	check_command		check_http_sites!10.10.5.200
	...
}

define command {
	command_name		check_http_sites
	command_line		$USER1$/check_http -H $ARG1$ -u
http://$ARG1$
}

The above assumes that your web server can properly answer for and  
differentiate between http://10.10.5.111 and http://10.10.5.200 (or  
whatever other address is valid).
