You're looking along those lines? /eli -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net on behalf of Rainer.Brunold@allianz.at Sent: Thu 3/2/2006 4:34 AM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] host config - action_url - launch external program [wd-vc] Hello nagios users ! I have a small question if anybody has configured a action_url for a host which launches a local program of the windows machine where you have your browser. I monitor several services of a host like http, https, ssh,cpu, .... If one of them appears in the service problems I open the host details and have just to click on the "extra host action" link and a local program like putty with the hostname as the parameter is launched. So I would get automatically a ssh session to that server. Any advice would be great, thanks, Rainer ******************************************************** Dieses E-Mail und allfaellig daran angeschlossene Anhaenge enthalten Informationen, die vertraulich und ausschliesslich fuer den (die) bezeichneten Adressaten bestimmt sind.
