Subject: Monitoring an intermittent host

If you could get the Intermittent host to submit a passive check whenever it
came on then you could setup the freshness to let you know when it had not
heard from the host in the freshness interval.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Monitoring an intermittent host

All,
    I have an intermittent host that connects for 15 minutes out of every =
hour.  I only want to be notified that it is down if it does not connect =
for a couple of hours.  I see how I can make the check interval longer =
but this does not really solve my problem.  The remote host has a lot of =
drift.  I imagine there is an easy way to do this but I am missing it if =
so.  I looked through the options in the configuration file and searched =
the archives (as best I could for some reasons the archives for this =
list are not available right now)  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Don
