[Nagiosplug-help] check_connections.pl

[Mark S Parrish]

Hello!

If this is the wrong list to submit this, please let me know.

I just set up Nagios on a server.  I can't get this plugin to work  
with check_nrpe.

On the remote machine -192.168.254.11 (it works fine):
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
...
command[check_powerterm]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/ 
check_connections.pl -w 80 -c 100 -C PowerTerm

[root at VM libexec]# ./check_connections.pl -w 80 -c 100 -C PowerTerm
OK - Established connections: 36


On the Nagios Server (it always shows "0" connections):
[root at backup libexec]# ./check_nrpe -H 192.168.254.11 -p 5666 -c  
check_powerterm
OK - Established connections: 0

I was wondering why this always shows "0" Established connections...?
I am using the check_nrpe plugin for lots of other plugins. All work  
fine.

Thanks!

Mark

## Nagios Plugin for checking the number of established network  
connections
## You can check the number of established network connections of a  
specific user
## or the number of network connections of a given command. Those two  
options
## can be combined.
##
## Note: This script uses lsof with sudo.
## Make sure your /etc/sudoers is properly configured.
## For example put the following line into /etc/sudoers
##      nagios      ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/lsof
## Please refer to the manpages for further options.
