A note to my future self:
Not ALL of the configs for a newly installed Nagios server are in /etc/nagios3/conf.d. Some of them are in /etc/nagios-plugins/config. In particular, the configuration for the raw check_nt command is in there, and it’s a little buggy. You’ll need to specify the correct port, and you’ll need to make it pass more than one argument along.
This is the commented-out dist definition of check_nt, followed by the correct way to define check_nt:
# 'check_nt' command definition
#define command {
# command_name check_nt
# command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -v '$ARG1$'
#}
define command {
command_name check_nt
command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -v '$ARG1$' '$ARG2$'
}
You’re welcome, future self. You’re welcome.
