Nagis connection refused error

[Assaf Flatto]

On the windows machine in nsclient installation directory look for a *.ini file .

In the file you have several sections defined by "[]" find the one relating to NSclient .
In that section you have a directive "allowed_hosts " - you will need to add the nagios server ip .
Below it you have directive "port" - you need to un comment it and define the  port you wish to 
use  - this port should also be used in your service and command definitions on the nagios server.

once that is done , stop the nsclient service and restart it.
