NSClient

[Anthony Montibello]

If it is a new install of NSClient++ or for that mater most of the window
plugins including NC_NET, the older NSClient or NRPE: SInce you are getting
a Connection refused the issue is most likely

1) the Client is not running, (NSCLIENT is not running) check the processes
on the Windows server to verify.
2) the port is in use by a different program,  sometimes other apps grab
hold of the default port
3) your Windows Server Firewall(or antivirus)  was not configured to allow
NSClient to accept incomming connections (Most likely cause of the problem)
4) you setup NSClient to use one port but check_Nt is trying to comunicate
on a different port.  (this is posible, verify configuration and test using
check_Nt from command line)

I do not know how much error reporting NS_Client does but you can also check
the Windows Event Log
