Error during Nagios HTTP Service setup?
 
I have a Nagios working on my RHEL 5.3 Box. I am trying to monitor a remote host HTTP Web Server. I can see the remote Host statistics like DISK CHECK, PING but HTTP row is displaying some error:

Code:

HTTP
 
 
 WARNING 10-13-2009 15:51:23 0d 1h 20m 50s 4/4 HTTP WARNING: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden - 4184 bytes in 0.004 second response time

The Nagios Logs says:

Code:

your check and config on the local server is fine.
Just that the remote check is not being allowed for HTTP.
Do you have a home page specified (DirectoryIndex in the httpd.conf).
Does that home page exist?
on the server marathon, telnet <ip> 80.
Also check there are no access controls in place like htaccess or the like.
