<div style="direction: ltr;">If you define it in the NSC.ini file, then you don't need to pass the arguements from check_nrpe. Using the handler set in the the NSC.ini file, try this: From the client machine: nsclient++ /test check_exchangeDB From the Nagios Server:</div> ../libexec/check_nrpe -H catorsv03 -c check_exchangeDB Also, about the bind error you are getting: Are you getting that when you run test? If so, that just means that nsclient is already running, and the test instance can't connect to the same port. It is OK unless you get that when you run nsclient /start. <div>On 4/24/06, ThomasC. <<a href="mailto:shoktai@gmail.com">shoktai@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> First of all, thanks for your help. > First, unless you have a specific need for it, I would disallow "nasty > metacharacters."

I still get that error : 2006-04-24 10:49:17: debug:.\NSClient++.cpp:305: Loading plugin: NSClient server... 2006-04-24 10:49:17: error:../../include\Socket.h:443: bind failed: 10048 Besides, The command use check_nrpe --> in NSC.ini i got [NRPE Handlers] check_exchangeDB=inject CheckFileSize MaxWarn=15G MaxCrit=16G File="d:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.stm" File="d:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.edb" but the command is launched this way : ../libexec/check_nrpe -H catorsv03 -c check_exchangeDB -a MaxWarn=15G MaxCrit=16G File='d:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.stm' File='d:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\priv1.edb' So i have to define it (the command check_exchangeDB) in the nrpe.cfg file in order to work? Or do nsclient++ uses nrpe automatically... ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
