Hylafax, WHFC error “Wrong command line or help pa”

ranf — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 08:26:34 +0000

I got this error when sending a fax from the windows client WHFC. I had an HP Laserjet PS as printer driver.

After choosing another printer driver it worked. I now use “Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS”.

nagios with check_by_ssh on Debian

ranf — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 08:15:44 +0000

nagios machine: sudo aptitude install nagios2
watched machine(example.com): sudo aptitude install nagios-plugins-basic

On both machines: create a new home dir for the nagios user:

sudo -i
mkdir /home/nagios
chown nagios:nagios /home/nagios
vipw
^D

In `vipw’ find the user nagios and edit home dir and login shell to /home/nagios and /bin/bash.

On nagios machine: create SSH key pair:

sudo su nagios
ssh-keygen
ssh-copy-id root@example.com
#
ssh root@example.com
mkdir /home/nagios/.ssh
cp .ssh/authorized_keys /home/nagios/.ssh
chown -R nagios:nagios  /home/nagios/.ssh
^D
#
ssh example.com w
^D

* edit /etc/nagios2/commands.cfg
* edit /etc/nagios2/conf.d/services_nagios2.cfg
