ping, telnet, ssh, from nagios-core website

[Will Bashlor]

Hi List,

I want to be able to click on an icon or link on the Nagios core website
and ping, telnet, ssh, etc. to each host. What's the easiest way to
accomplish this? I've researched and haven't found much that's solid.

I've seen the action_url. Seems like that may work if I modify how
windows responds to certain urls, (i.e. CustomURL) like ping://,
telnet://, ssh://, etc. I'm not sure how it would handle $HOSTADDRESS$,
or I guess that would be translated by Nagios? And I think I'm limited
to 1 action_url?

Then I read something about using notes...? I'm not sure about that one.

Someone also mentioned Nagios var? I'm not a programmer.

I would even be happy with a windows Nagios app is I had to, but would
rather it be within the website.

This is a basic function of most commercial monitoring tools, hopefully
there's an easy way.

Thoughts anyone? Thanks in advance.

-Will
