Hi Marc,

I've tried doing as you suggested, but my post check command does not
seem to be being executed for some reason. Do you have any idea what I
might have done wrong? Here is the setup I've used;

In nagios.cfg

obsess_over_hosts=1
ochp_command=host_check

And then in commands.cfg;

define command
{
	command_name	host_check
	command_line		/usr/local/nagios/host_check.pl $HOSTADDRESS$ $HOSTEVENTID$
}

Finally, my simple Perl script to test the output;

#!/usr/bin/perl
open MYFILE, ">>data.txt";
print MYFILE "Logging for server $ARGV[0], Event ID: $ARGV[1] \n";
close (MYFILE);

Unfortunately, the script is not being called for some reason. I know
the script itself is working fine, as I've tested it independently.
I've made sure that Nagios is restarted, and the pre-flight check
doesn't report any problems. Any thoughts on what the problem might
be?

Cheers,
Chris
