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

[Nigel Prentice]

The command_line directive for the actual plugin looks wrong to me (the return code could be saying Nagios can't find a file of this name). I would expect the directive line to be:

command_line $USER1$/check_rbl $HOSTADDRESS$

That is, no ! character, and a space between the path to the actual command and the hostname argument.
Good luck!

  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
