Nagios monitors hosts and services on your network. Actual host and service checks are performed by separate plugins which return the host or service status to Nagios. This site is devoted to making the plugins as useful and reliable as possible.
The latest version of Nagios Plugins is now released!
This release contains enhancements for check_procs and pst3 on Solaris systems (so it works correctly in Solaris 10 zones and also runs much faster). There were other minor updates and fixes from Thomas Guyot-Sionnest, Holger Weiss and Matthias Eble.
Thanks to all contributors to the project.
The main changes to this release are:
Fix Debian bug #460097: check_http --max-age broken (Hilko Bengen)
Optimised pst3 for systems with large number of processes (Duncan Ferguson)
Updated Nagios::Plugin to 0.27
Fix Debian bug #479013: check_dig's -l is mandatory now (sf.net #1986306)
check_dig now returns CRITICAL instead of WARNING when no answer section is found
check_procs now captures stderr in external command and adds to plugin output
check_snmp now only prints perfdata for non numeric values (#1867716)
check_icmp now supports packet size modification
check_http -e now accepts a comma-delimited list of expected status codes (Sven Nierlein)
libtap now included with this distribution for easier testing. Run ./configure with --enable-libtap
check_ntp_peer/check_ntp_time used to show port in --help but ignored the argument - now implemented
Fix possible segfault in check_ntp_peer with deliberately invalid packets

This is the latest release of the Nagios Plugins, the official plugins for the world's most popular monitoring software, Nagios.
Included in this release is the --extra-opts syntax, available on all the core C based plugins, so you can now specify extra options that would act as if they were passed via the command line. This allows sensitive information to be stored in configuration files away from Nagios and in process listings. See http://nagiosplugins.org/extra-opts for more information. Note, this is only available by setting the configure option --enable-extra-opts, though it will be included by default in a future release.
Credit to Thomas Guyot-Sionnest and Sean Finney for their hard work in porting this functionality over from the Nagios::Plugins perl module.
Speaking of which, this is a reminder that the Nagios::Plugin perl module is also included in this package. You need to run ./configure with --enable-perl-modules to include the perl libraries.
This release contains lots of fixes and minor enhancements from Holger Weiss and Matthias Eble.
Other highlights of this release:
Added ./check_nt -v INSTANCES to count number of instances (Alessandro Ren)
New check_icmp -s option to specify the source IP address
check_dns now sorts addresses for testing results for more than one returned IP (Matthias Urlichs)
Fix segfault in check_ntp_time and (deprecated) check_ntp (Bug #1862300)
check_disk should now work with large file systems (2TB+) on all archs that supports it
Fixed check_disk disk usage calculation when using --group=NAME (related to bug #1348746)
Fix help text of check_ntp* (Bug #1880095)
Fix bugs and flaws in best offset server selection of check_ntp_time and (deprecated) check_ntp
check_ntp_peer now checks for the LI_ALARM flag
Sync to latest Gnulib (includes new floorf function)
check_pgsql now successfully builds with postgres lib v8.3 (Bug #1878972)
check_procs now accepts --ereg-argument-array for a regular expression match to the argument array
Reverted back to using pst3 for Solaris systems. Fixed issues re: -m64 needed to compile on 64bit systems
If applicable, Gettext linked dynamically instead of statically
check_dig can now pass arguments to dig by using -A/--dig-arguments (#1874041/#1889453)
check_ntp and check_ntp_peer now show proper jitter/stratum thresholds longopts in --help

check_mysql and check_radius now try clearing password in processlist just like check_mysql_query
check_mysql and check_mysql_query now support sockets explicitely (-s, --socket)
negate now has the ability to replace the status text as well (-s, --substitute)
Added performance data to check_ping (Christian Schneemann)
Added support for --extra-opts in all C plugins (disabled by default, see configure --help)
Updated Nagios::Plugin to 0.27
Fixed passive option in check_by_ssh
On non-skipped stderr, check_by_ssh now returns UNKNOWN or worse (result from command) instead of always UNKNOWN.
