[Nagiosplug-help] How do I use check_rbl.pl in Nagios?

[Ian Rarity]

The "#" tells me you're running the plugin from the command line as root - what happens if you su to the Nagios user first, then try running it?

Ta,
IR.

Subject: [Nagiosplug-help] How do I use check_rbl.pl in Nagios?

Hi,

I am a newbie to Nagios.


Could anyone please let me know how to configure check_rbl.pl in the commands,services and the hosts file? This when run in command line

# perl check_rbl.pl xxx.yyyyyyyyy.zzz would end up giving the correct results, but when I configured it in the services it displays "Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing"



Here is my code in the services.cfg file.

# check Mail Server DNS for balcklisting

define service{
        use                     generic-service
        host_name               XXXX
        service_description     DNS Blacklist check
        check_command           check_rbl
}


My commands.cfg file definition is here as follows:

################################################################################
#       Mail Server - DNS Blacklist Check                                      #
################################################################################

# 'Check_rbl' command definition.
define command{
        command_name    check_rbl
        command_line    $USER1$/check_rbl.pl!$HOSTADDRESS$
}


Please help me out ASAP

Thanks
Manohar
