Stephen, Check the attached output, "mybox" is the XP box and the other one is the 2003 server. I get notifications for the XP box but not for the 2003 server.

Turn to your Event logs. Does anything come thru them? What about netstat –a? Can you ping the Nagios server from the Windows Server 2003 machine? Do the hosts show up fine in Nagios, or is it just notifications being a problem? Check that the Nagios service has permission to read the Windows 2003 server. <div> Stephen Valdinger MIS Helpdesk Coordinator Dover Chemical Corporation 3676 Davis Rd NW Dover, OH 44622 330-365-3622 <a href="mailto:stephen.valdinger@doverchem.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">stephen.valdinger@doverchem.com </a> </div> <div> <div style="text-align: center;" align="center"> <hr align="center" size="2" width="100%"> </div> From: John Duraisw [mailto:<a href="mailto:john.duraiswamy@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">john.duraiswamy@gmail.com</a>] Sent: Friday, June 22, 2007 2:29 PM<div> To: Valdinger, Stephen (DOV, MSX) Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios-Windows 2003</div> </div><div> Stephen, I do not have any notification issues on this server except for these windows 2003 service checks.

Do you have other services that you are getting notified via email or sms? Any hosts that work just fine? I'm disagreeing with Marc on the MTA thing if you can receive other notifications. Try executing the notification command thru terminal for that service/host.
