Fred, I gave that a whirl and It didnt work either.......sorry ! What I have done is to change a service description using the Nagios MySQL database created for me by Nagmin. I used the Database tables for this. If I view the service in these tables then the new name is registered. When I run the verify config I get a warning on the service (this is usual and I always have done it's about the check interval) - here it still shows the old name. In the verification table files it does show the new name though. Sorry to be a pain - I appreciate your great work !

I'll look at the activation routine today and test it out. I was adding error checking to the activation routine late last night, while watching CNN and, my apologies, didn't test it. I'll get a new release out today, I have some other deadlines this AM. In the meantime, the configuration writing routine is nagios_write.cgi. You'll see a line near the top where it calls &nagios_verify and then checks the status. Comment out the status check lines after that and it will finish the configuring.

I have been playing with it this morning, but doent seem to be able to get my 'Nagmin' config to apply into my Nagios config. I have all the tables imprted okay and can see all my hosts. I have made changes to the Database table for Nagios and verified and activated the config but nothing seems to change. What have I missed ? I also ran the port scan - wow; it found a lot ! Really great - this is going to be a great bargaining tool to get Nagios implemented for us ! Thanks !

It's built on the MySQL WebMIN module and acts as a Nagios pre-processor adding many management features, NMAP scanning of Nagios hosts, default field completion, reports, and a ServiceGroup function. This is the first release, but it's pretty stable. Futures to come will be host, contact and escalation wizards and, hopefully, a lot of good ideas from users. NagMIN is registered with SourceForge and can be downloaded from there. http://nagmin.sourceforge.net -------------------------- Fred Reimers (CCIE #1469) Senior Network Consultant Info Systems, Inc. freimers@infosysinc.com ..... ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event.
