Hi, I can confirm the bug, strace shows just
4361 stat("/var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd", 0x7fff2ee45bb0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) 4361 open("/var/run/nagios/nsca.dump", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_APPEND, 0666) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) I can confirm that removing --chuid nobody from /etc/init.d/nsca indeed makes passive checks work. Is there any way to have send_nsca fail in the future in cases like this? Now it just happily reported "1 data packet(s) sent to host successfully." when nsca was discarding the report... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
