  • next check
    Post date: Monday, May 21, 2012 - 13:57

    Hi,

    if I start Nagios all hosts and services are checked well according to the parameters. The email notification works fine. After an undefined time

    all default checks will not be scheduled again. Only if I restart Nagios the next check time is set correct for the services.

    Can you help me, please ?

    Thank you.

  • GetDCName
    Post date: Friday, May 11, 2012 - 12:58

    I bought CopSSH yesterday and I have a problem with GetDCName.

    This problem occurs because CopSSH can't talk to a domain controller on ldap udp 389.

    I have done some digging and found out that when CopSSH is looking/asking the DNS for the domain controller it uses this command:

    _ldap._tcp.pdc._msdcs. DnsDomainName .

    CopSSH should not ask DNS for the PDC(primary domain controller), but for the DC for the AD site in which the server resides.

    CopSSH should use this command to find the correct DC:

    Hello there,

     

    thank you for this great port to Windows, i love it.

    I have a few questions.

     

    Ill set up the Nagwin Server and iam able to check servers.

    Now as iam an IT Department i have customers, ill need to make customer logins so that after login they only see (read only) theire servers.

    And because of that i need to declare some kind of groups (customers name) wherer these servers are in.

     

    How is this done ?

  • Win2008: No supported authentication methods available [preauth]
    Post date: Tuesday, May 1, 2012 - 22:31

    Hello all,

     

    I installed CopSSH and added a domain user. I was originally getting an error that the user could not be found. The user was entered exactly as shown on the config screen & what is shown on the sshd_config file, but the error message indicated to use a different case. I did, and now get the error Received disconnect from x.x.x.x: 14: No supported authentication methods available [preauth].

     

  • Looking for a Rotation Bat Script
    Post date: Thursday, April 26, 2012 - 14:19

    So I now have RSync working properly :D

     

    So I would like to keep 7 days of backup and up to 52 weekly backups.  Does  anyone have  a bat script that already does this or something similar ?

  • Getting a strange error
    Post date: Thursday, April 26, 2012 - 07:50

    Even though I see the error, seems to transfer over the files without issue, would be good to get rid of the error.

     

    I am using a batch script to get my rsync working.

     

    @ECHO OFF

    REM where to find rsync and related files

  • Use of COPSSH
    Post date: Saturday, April 14, 2012 - 17:36

    I am an application programmer in Windows system and have no experience with SFTP servers. The application I am building requires the ability to accept files from clients. The clients must log on with a valid username and password and must be restricted to a single folder on a ramdisk. They, the clients, are not users on the server. Can COPSSH be used in this kind of application or does it require any user to also be a user on the Windows server? If not, is there a product available that might fit?

    Thanks for your time.

  • Copssh Permission denied (keyboard-interactive).
    Post date: Thursday, April 12, 2012 - 20:05

    I am attempting to upgrade from copSSH version 1.4.5 to 4.0.2 with as little intrusion and reconfiguration as possible on a Windows 2003 server.  I removed 1.4.5, deleted the installation directory (copied to new location prior to delete), and installed 4.0.2 into the same folder destination.  All is well up to this point.  I am testing SSH from a Linux box to the Windows server, previously this worked.  I copied the required keys, known_hosts, etc.

  • COPSSH tunneling / port forwarding
    Post date: Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - 19:59

    we purchased copssh to tunnel incoming connections to a different port number on the same machine we installed openssh on.

    we would like the listening port 22 of copssh to forward/tunnel to a listening port 23 on the same machine

     

    is there any documentation on how to accomplish this?

  • Copssh running under Windows XP doesn't allow remote host to logoff properly
    Post date: Sunday, April 8, 2012 - 22:01

    With Copssh running on my Windows XP machine, exiting the remote client hangs the command shell in which I am running the client.  I can then force the completion of the logoff by opening the Copssh control panel on the XP, displaying active connections, and terminating any running process(es).  Attached is the log of connecting the client via public/private key, then exiting (debug3 is turned on).  The same client works fine connecting to Copssh running on my Windows 7 machine; it always exits normally.

  • Scedule Downtime
    Post date: Thursday, April 5, 2012 - 10:47

    Hi,

    by default iam not allowed to scedule a downtime for any server:

    "Sorry, but you are not authorized to commit the specified command.

    Read the section of the documentation that deals with authentication and authorization in the CGIs for more information."


    Searched the Nagios Doku, but found nothing to edit the permissions... not even a command for scedule downtime manually.

  • plugin check_logfiles
    Post date: Wednesday, April 4, 2012 - 11:56

    Hi,
    I use the plugin check_logfiles and want to analyze a syslog from
    the customer support application of 'footprints'. If I start the
    search with the 'criticalpatterns' parameter but no errors were found
    though the pattern is in the *log file. I think this problem results
    of the 'end of line' or 'end of file' characters in this case.

    I installed copssh on window 7.  When I try to open the copssh control panel nothing happens.  I tried the following a few times but no luck.

    • Uninstall Copssh
    • Remove installation directory 
    • remove the service account
    • check if Opensshserver service is removed.
    • Install Copssh again

     Please advise what else I need to do to get this working.

    Thanks.

    We transfer several terabytes of virtual servers to a remote site (5-6 at the same time due to the latency to the remote site).

    Out of the 5-6 sometimes 1 or 2 fail, and we get these message in the log file on the server side:

    Hi,

    I've manage to get cwRsync up and running and successfully ran a sync from one of my Linux Servers to my Windows box but I have a couple of questions...

    1) We are going to be using rsync on a number of servers, some are connected to our backup box by an internal vLAN and some are not so I just need to check if we have taken enough security precuations to prevent unauthorised access. This is what we've done so far:

    a) On the Linux server to be backed up we have opened port 873 for rsync
