Comunity string is same, and let say it is "niceday" but it is same on all machines I have plan to monitor. I tried all, but it I am really stuck, same configuration ( which I btw just copy /paste to machines behind firewal ) works corretly on machines which are direct accessable from nagios server. I have port 161 open. Thank you all for comment, I need to hear your experiences regarding this Kind regards, Arlytex 2009/8/6 Richard Remington <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:rremington@messagevision.com"><rremington@messagevision.com></a>: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hi Arlytex, Is it possible that the SNMP password (community string) is not 'public' on your Windows 2003 servers that are behind the firewall? Perhaps if they're behind a firewall, someone also went to the trouble to change the SNMP community string (password) to reach them?

I have cca 10 hosts in "my network" but they are behind firewall. I mean in "my network" which is not exposed to outside world, some machines are behidn firewals in. Critical machines run Windows 2003 server OS, and I tried to use NSClient++, in combination with check_nrpe ( I tried both ports 5666 and 12489 ) and I can get information from windows servers--checking them with check_nrpe looks ok. Then I realized that with SNMP I could better informations ( tested on machines directly accessible from nagios server ) and decided to copy/paste working SNMP configuration from windows machines and add necessary servers to nagios conf files and have all unified via SNMP monitoring. I am using *.pl scripts from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://nagios.manubulon.com/snmp_storage.html">http://nagios.manubulon.com/snmp_storage.html</a> and for machines directly accessible all is ok But I got into troubles for servers behind firewall :) Ports 161/162 ( UDP/TCP ) are open on firewal to windows servers When I run ./check_snmp_storage.pl -H AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA -C public -m ^C: -w 80 -c 90 ( AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA address of win. machine behind firewal ) I am getting an error ERROR: Description/Type table : No response from remote host 'AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA'. what means no return information from server. First I suspected on connectivity and I moved SNMP to listen on another port, run command ./check_snmp_storage.pl -H AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA -C public -m ^C: -w 80 -c 90 --port 2222 but same issue ( this process works when I test it on machines which are not behind firewall ) On windows machine netstat -a shows UDP server:snmp *:* UDP server:snmptrap *:* what means snmp is listenning ( same configuration of SNMP service works ok for machines which are in same net as nagios server ) I am suspection it could something to do with SNMP client / SNMP protocol how it works, as I am getting correct response when I sent it to 5666 + check_nrpe. Any reasonable hint what I could check will very useful, so thank you in advance. I am preety lost I do not really know what to check more in order to resolve this. Operating system I use for nagios server is Debian stable 5, I am very sure configuration of SNMP on Windows servers is correct. HW I am want to monitor are HP Proliants DL360 G5, DL380 G5 Kind regards, Arlytex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
