SMTP server update

To clarify- 

 

1. Mail notification via Nagios is is configured in your Nagios
configuration files, no SMTP info is necessary - Nagios expects a
working local SMTP relay for such configurations to actually work.

 

2. Your nagios server can indeed be set up to relay mail to a specific
SMTP server via the mail server software's configuration files (I.e
Postfix/Sendmail, etc etc).

mail notification is done by commands defined in your Nagios'
configuration files.

 

 

 

if you can send mail from the server that Nagios is installed on, you
don't need to specify SMTP or whatever anymore.
