Hi all, We have problems running the nsclient on Citrix machines. While the boxes are running just fine, no huge mem or cpu load, check_nt returns with "Connection refused by host". We've tried several versions of the nsclient but nothing seems to help. Does anyone have any idea or the same problem?? Thx, Frank de Groodt |

I'm using the ns client to check a number of Citrix metaframe boxes.
What is the command you are using to check the Citrix boxes.
Mine looks like this:
# 'check_nt_citrix' command definition
define command{
command_name check_nt_citrix
command_line $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -v SERVICESTATE -l imaservice
}

It's not the command to check if Citrix is running on the box that gives
us problems but all checks performed by check_nt very often come up with
connection refused.

On the NSclient support forums it's been documented that the client will occasionally crash. http://support.tsmgsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?t=261 I've noticed the client will occasionally stop to requests but haven't had it happen often enough to try and figure out a pattern. One way to tell if the client has stopped responding to requests is to try and stop the service. If the service fails to stop and kill the process then you know the client has crashed. A reboot will fix the problem but if a reboot isn't possible use the pskill utility to kill the actual process id (much like UNIX kill): http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pstools.shtml Our Citrix servers reboot every night so the nsclient has never had an oprotunity to run longer than 24 hours so I'm still trying to figure out exactly what conditions are needed to cause the client to crash. patrick Frank de Groodt wrote: > It's not the command to check if Citrix is running on the box that gives > us problems but all checks performed by check_nt very often come up with > connection refused. > > Frank > > On Fri, 2004-07-23 at 13:58, Patrick Stockton wrote: > >>I'm using the ns client to check a number of Citrix metaframe boxes. >> >>What is the command you are using to check the Citrix boxes. >> >>Mine looks like this: >> >> >># 'check_nt_citrix' command definition >>define command{ >> command_name check_nt_citrix >> command_line $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -v SERVICESTATE -l imaservice >>} >> >> >>Patrick >> >>so...@xs... wrote: >> >> >>>Hi all, >>> >>>We have problems running the nsclient on Citrix machines. >>>While the boxes are running just fine, no huge mem or cpu load, check_nt >>>returns with "Connection refused by host".

You can check whether this is true on your server by running "netstat -an | findstr 1248" from a shell window (when the NSClient service is stopped). If there is a LISTEN entry on that port, then NSClient cannot bind to it. We have changed the default port we use in our customer systems to 12480 to eliminate this problem in general. We have some tools we've developed (installer, config tool, mass-update tool) to simplify configuration of the port and password on new systems and across multiple already-deployed systems. I might be able to get the tools posted into the contrib section on the Nagios site -- will have to check on that. Mark -- Mark D.
