[Nagiosplug-help] problems with check_hpjd plugin

[Donald A. McCallum]

Although you can ping it by name, perhaps Nagios is not resolving it
properly.
Have you tried replacing the name with the IP?

/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ./check_hpjd -H admprinter -C itdrift
ie, if admprinter is 10.0.2.3 then
/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ./check_hpjd -H 10.0.2.3 -C itdrift

Just a thought.

Okay, found it and have now added the IP of the machine I have nagios
on.

root at gabriel /usr/local/nagios/libexec# snmpwalk -v1 -c itdrift
admprinter system
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: HP ETHERNET MULTI-ENVIRONMENT,ROM
L.20.07,JETDIRECT,JD84,EEPROM L.22.09,CIDATE 01/17/2002
SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.11.2.3.9.1
SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0 = Timeticks: (34764480) 4 days, 0:34:04.80
SNMPv2-MIB::sysContact.0 = STRING:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0 = STRING: NPI340174
SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 = STRING:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysServices.0 = INTEGER: 64


But "check_hpjd -H admprinter -C itdrift" still returns:
Timeout: No response from admprinter

What else could be wrong?
