They will have a configuration file where you'll define the commands to run over check_nrpe. NSClient++ uses NSC.ini OpMonAgent uses opmonagent.ini But to make it easy, the OpMonAgent has a command to restart services built-in his configuration file. So, if you have the OpMonAgent running on host, you just need run the following command from your nagios server: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -n -c service_control -a "spooler" start But, if you are using NSClient++ you need define a command into the configuration file first, then you'll use this command in the check_nrpe.

It seems like a simple task to get Nagios to restart a service. I have NRPE now running on the server under xinedt, and switched the client back to NSClient++ from OpMon Agent. Both support NRPE. I am not sure if I am supposed to get a service restarted with a NRPE_Check command like: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -n -c service_control -a "spooler" start Or am is supposed to create scripts on the host that will restart a service like a .bat file with a “net start spooler” command and than get an event_handler set up to call that script. It seems there are different ways to do it and I am being pulled both directions. I am new to Nagios as well as Linux and have been able to scrap my way thus far while learning a lot about both, but am about ready to call it quits. I was pointed to the NakedNuns website to the section on CheckExternalScripts, but honestly could not make much sense of it. <div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"> <hr size="2" width="100%" align="center"> </div> From: Fernando Rocha [mailto:fernando.rocha@opservices.com.br] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 4:38 AM To: Jonathan Williams Cc: Nagios Users Mailinglist Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Help - I am unable to get the NSClient++ to restart services </div> <div> <div> Jonathan, make sure that you have the xinetd installed and check if there is the following directory: [root@fernando ~]# ls /etc/xinetd.d/ chargen-dgram daytime-dgram discard-dgram echo-dgram eklogin gssftp krb5-telnet ktalk rsync time-dgram chargen-stream daytime-stream discard-stream echo-stream ekrb5-telnet klogin kshell nrpe tcpmux-server time-stream if you don't have that, try to install by apt-get! and then, run the command again Make install-xinetd or you can install just writing a file like this: [root@fernando ~]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe service nrpe { flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no only_from = 127.0.0.1 (PUT YOURS NARIOS SERVER'S IPS HERE) user = nagios (PUT THE NAGIOS USER HERE) server = /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nrpe (THE NRPE SERVER) server_args = -c /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nrpe.cfg --inetd (THE NRPE CONFIG FILE) log_on_failure += USERID disable = no } and then restart xinetd! <div> Fernando Rocha OpServices Tecnologia da Informação </div> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan Williams" <jonathan.williams@us.g4s.com> To: "Fernando Rocha" <fernando.rocha@opservices.com.br> Sent: Monday, July 14, 2008 7:07:57 PM (GMT-0300) Auto-Detected Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Help - I am unable to get the NSClient++ to restart services <div> I was able to compile that without ssl and was able to install the pugin’s using the following Make install-plugin Make install-daemon Make install-daemon-config Those worked finer however the next step says: Install the NRPE daemon as a service under xinetd Make install-xinetd I run that command and get: root@nagiosserver:- /downloads/nrpe-2.8# cannot create regular file ‘/ect/xinetd.d/nrpe’ No such file or directory make: *** [install-xinetd] Error 1 Any thoughts??
