<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I've got a problem with some "longrunners", which really critically affekt my nagios server when you look at the load.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I configured the service_check_timeout to 200seconds, because I got one check against an HSG Controller, which last so long.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">But some other service checks are still running longer than those 200secs and nagios doesn't kill them.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">What can I do, to tell nagios to kill a process when the service_check_timeout doesn't work?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">It's pretty annoying to kill the processes by hand each time :)</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Thanks in advance,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Philipp</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">BTW, I'm using Nagios 2.0a1 and Fedora Core 2, the service which bothers me the most is the check_win_eventlog service...</FONT></P>
