Een servicecheck doen op een Windows service met een $-teken in de naam vereist dat je de enkele $-teken verdubbelt en tussen quotes plaatst, bijv. MSSQL“$$”FOLD.

Installeer OpenBSD volgens de FAQ en Nagios met NRPE volgens deze handleiding.

Open /var/www/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg en uncomment de regel voor commands.cfg en hosts.cfg.
Open /var/www/etc/nagios/cgi.cfg en uncomment de regels om de nagiosadmin de juiste view rechten te geven.

Open /var/www/etc/nagios/commands.cfg Voeg onderaan toe:

Open /var/www/etc/nagios/hosts.cfg en voeg toe:

define host {
    use linux-server
    host_name desktop-01
    alias DESKTOP-01
    address 10.0.0.2

Check configuratie:

# /usr/local/sbin/nagios -v /var/www/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Alles ok? Dan:

# /usr/local/sbin/nagios -d /var/www/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Ga vervolgens naar deze site en download de laatste versie van NSClient++.
Pak deze uit op de server naar C:\Program Files\NSClient++. Voer het volgende uit in een command prompt:

C:\Program Files\NSClient++>NSClient++.exe /install

Open nsc.ini in dezelfde directory en pas aan naar onderstaand voorbeeld.
