[SOLVED] Install nagios-plugins

I want to install nagios-plugins in a headless server running arch linux so another server, the one currently monitoring, can monitor the first machine using the nrpe plugin.
After installing nagios-plugins from aur , i don't know what else to do.... because i did not install nagios core itself..... now, my question is: Do i have to install nagios itself as well and start is as daemon just to make use of one plugin? Or just installing nagios-plugins is enough?: In the last case, what else do I have to do?
Thanks!

Yes.
Configure /etc/nrpe/nrpe.cfg (it's well commented) and setup either xinetd to listen for 5666 connections, or add nrpe to your daemons array if you want to run it standalone.

    another suggestion? the SUNWlibm was necessary so thank you for that.

  • [solved]eclipse wont install ecb plugin

    Hello,
    i'm trying to install ecb plugin from eclipse, but it just wont get installed. I tried to install eclipse-ecb from arch repository, but after installing it. eclipse doesn't have an option to create any c/c++ project. Ok, then i thought install it from eclipse repo. So i added http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/indigo as repo in eclipse checked "C++ development tools" hit install and then eclipse started to download the packages, but suddenly on 33 percent i get this:
    An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
    session context was:(profile=SDKProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

    Then i deleted .eclipse directory and tried again and again, and i always run in to this issue, even if i try to install ecb from a local repo. Please help me to investigate the problem.
    Solution: uninstall eclipse, delete /usr/share/eclipse, reinstall.

    Thanks for the hint, inxsible, downgrading to JRE 1.6 solved it.
    For the sake of others who might run into the same problem: I downloaded jre-6u26-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz from the Arch Rollback Machine, installed it (
    pacman -U jre-6u26-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
    ) and added
    jre
    to the
    IgnorePkg
    line in
    /etc/pacman.conf
    so it won't get replaced in the next update.
    After doing that, Eclipse suffered PermGen Out-of-memory-errors. Adding
    -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
    to
    /usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini
    fixed that and now m2e installs fine.

    I have not done this myself, and the error you got should be more clear. What version of Solaris 11 are you using?  I think the issue may be in the default GID that is assigned. The instructions don't add a GID to the group action:
    group groupname=nagios
    user username=nagios group=nagios
    The pkg(5) manpage says this is optional:
         gid
             The group's unique numerical id. The  default  value  is the first free group under 100.
    You may want to add a specific GID to see if it solves the issue:
    group groupname=nagios gid=nnn   (where nnn is an unused group ID)

  • Cannot install xmlp plugin for word 2007 on Windows 7 64bit

    I cannot install xmlp plugin for word 2007 on Windows 7 64bit. I keep getting a "java runtime not installed" error. I have applied the latest updates to word. Is there a fix to this?

    Hi,
    Even if you use a 64bit OS, the office version could be either 32bit or 64bit. Which one do you use? If already installed a 64bit version Office, try to switch to a 32bit one, because it will work fine and might solve your problem too.

  • How to install a plugin on 64 bits windows 2008 server?

    From the developer forum, I found a description which told me how to install a plugin on windows series system, but I only succeded intalling the plugin on 32 bits windows xp, couldn't install the plugin on 64 bits windows 2008 server. Any ideas or advices, men of genius? Thanks :-)

    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

  • I am trying to download Adobe reader latest version and when I hit download a bar appears at the top of the screen telling me to install missing plugins but firefox states plugins up to date what can I do?

    I am unable to download Adobe reader to update my system as I only have version 7 on my computer. Normally I would be able to download direct from Adobe and my system would update but when I try to download a message bar appears which states on the left hand side "additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page" and on the right hand side there is a button which states "install missing plugins". When I click on the button a dialog box appears which states "no suitable plugins where found with a message next to a manual install button "unknown plugin(application/getplusplusadobe16299)

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Google talk video plugin does not work any more with Firefox 4. When clicking on the video chat icon, I am repeatedly asked to install the plugin, and it never works.

    Google talk audio/video plugin used to work fine on Firefox 3, but does not work anymore on Firefox 4. Every time I click on the video chat icon on google talk, I am asked to install the plugin, even if I have already installed it before. The plugin works properly on the latest version of IE on the same PC.
    Thanks for your help. I do not want to switch to Chrome or Opera, but if this bug is not fixed, I will have to.

    Not sure if installing IE 9 did it or not but I now see the camera in IE, FF and Chrome. Could be Facebook fixed the problem also.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Security question: When installing a Plugin from a website why will you not allow me to research it to see if it is a virus?

    I don't like to install Plugins without doing some research on them first. http://news.sky.com/home/sky-live-tv wants to install a plugin. Have they been hacked? How do I know what I am installing? Facebook wants to install a plugin after their latest update, will it crash Firefox. Give me some insight on plugin/status bar that Asks "Install Missing Plugin" with some information about the creator and the name of the plugin.

    That's a good idea.
    Incidentally, that page uses the Windows Media Player plugin, at least when I visit it.

  • Intranet install of plugin 1.4.0_01 failing on Win2000 in IE6.0

    When I modify the HTMLConverter output to do the plugin install from an intranet host the installation appears to run to completion (the InstallShield dialogs appear and the install status bar goes to 100%), but the applet does not run. The gray applet placeholder disappears and nothing happens, as if the user pressed No in the initial Security Warning dialog. The web server access log shows no requests after the plugin exe.
    After the install, the plugin control panel is installed and works, and the Web Start icon appears on the desktop, but the plugin is not available to applets. If the browser is restarted and the HTML page containing the applet is loaded again, the browser starts the plugin installation again.
    Downloading the plugin from Sun using the unmodified HTMLConverter output works perfectly. Downloading the exe file from my intranet host and manually running it also works. After the plugin is installed either of these ways, the browser no longer initiates an installation and the applet runs as expected.
    My environment is Windows 2000 SP2, IE 6.0, Apache 1.3.26. In the HTML file I changed the codebase line from:
    classid = "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0000-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA"
    codebase = "http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_0-win.cab#Version=1,4,0,0"
    to:
    classid = "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0000-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA"
    codebase = "http://myhost/j2re-1_4_0_01-windows-i586.exe#Version=1,4,0,0"
    Any ideas about what I've done wrong or what I can try?
    Thanks,
    -dh

    Found the problem. The HTMLConverter specifies 1.4.0 in the HTML and I chose the 'Use only Java 1.4.0' option, but then I used the latest (1.4.0_01) plugin exe. It works when I change:
    classid = "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0000-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA"
    codebase = "http://myhost/j2re-1_4_0_01-windows-i586.exe#Version=1,4,0,0"
    to specify the right version:
    classid="clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0000-0001-ABCDEFFEDCBA"
    codebase="http://p4s1800n1/j2re-1_4_0_01-windows-i586.exe#Version=1,4,0,1"
    It would be nice if the install provided a better error indication...
