<BODY> I cant find any called command.cfg but one called checkcommands.cfg I cant really find any pointer to what command nagios really does, but here is what I found in checkcommands.cfg # 'check-host-alive' command definition define command{ command_name check-host-alive command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADRESS -w 3000. 0, 80% -c 5000. 0, 100% -p 1 } So I am not sure where I can find the command that nagios really is running. I should mention that I havent installed any plugins or add-on's yet, this is right from distributed .tar.gz Maybe I am missing something ? The check_ping definition in checkcommands.cfg looks like this: # 'check_ping' command definition define command{ command_name check_ping command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADRESS -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p 5 Mvh Kjell Grindalen ----- Original Message ----- From: Matthew Wilson <matthewwilson@dsl.pipex.com> Date: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 2:22 pm Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Problems with check_alive > Hi, > Have a look at you commands.cfg and check the command definiton for > check_ping / check_host_alive and try running it from the command > line. > If it doesn't work, post the full command definition and we can > take a > look. > > Matthew Wilson > DC-Sat.net > > On Tue, 2003-10-14 at 12:42, grik@student.no wrote: > > Hello! > > > > > > > > I have a small problem with the check alive standard check service > > > > > > > > In my nagios.log I get the following: > > > > SERVICE ALERT: hostname; PING;WARNING;HARD;3; (No output!) > > > > For all the hosts > > > > I searched a little, but couldnt find anything matching my problem. > > > > The nagios server is running on a Solaris 9 server, and I have 6 > other> Solaris servers that I am watching with Nagios.
