check_dhcp issue
Hi all,
I need to monitor our dhcp server and came to see the check_dhcp plugin. However I'm getting this error when initiating the command: nagios@tool:~/libexec$ ./check_dhcp -s serveip1 Error: Could not bind socket to interface eth0. Check your privileges... But when I am on root, I get this: root@tool:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_dhcp -s serveip1 OK: Received 1 DHCPOFFER(s), max lease time = 86400 sec ls -als on check_dhcp: 76 -rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios 72834 2009-04-27 13:06 check_dhcp Do I need to do something like set permissions on serveip1 server? Please advise. :( Thanks! DB |
Nagios Plugin - Check_dhcp
http://www.cyberpro.com.au/Tips_n_Tr..._Check%11dhcp/ You can follow what the article says to do, but my recommendation is to use sudo as using sticky bits can possibly be a security risk. |

I did the above steps but now getting this error in the Nagios page: CRITICAL: Received 1 DHCPOFFER(s), 0 of 1 requested servers responded, max lease time = 86400 sec. Please advise... :( DB |

What I did was I created a separate check command definition and reinstated $USER1$/check_dhcp "IP ADDRESS" Now Nagios is absolutely happy with this change. :-) DB. :D |
