1 Nagios Plugin Requirements
2 --------------------------
4 Some plugins require that you have additional programs and/or
5 libraries installed on your system before they can be used. Plugins
6 that are dependent on other programs/libraries that are missing are
7 usually not compiled. Requirements for various plugins are listed
10 check_ldaps, check_http --ssl, check_tcp --ssl, check_smtp --starttls
11 - Requires openssl or gnutls libraries for SSL connections
12 http://www.openssl.org, http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls
15 - Requires the fping utility distributed with SATAN. Either
16 download and install SATAN or grab the fping program from
18 RPM: http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=fping
19 Note that the fping command must be setuid root to function.
22 - Requires the qstat utility available from
23 http://sourceforge.net/projects/qstat/
24 Last tested on qstat 2.3d BETA
27 - Requires the NET-SNMP package available from
28 http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/
29 The snmpget binary is all that is required.
32 - Requires the LDAP libraries available from
33 http://www.openldap.org/
35 Redhat Source: openldap-1.2.9-6.i386.rpm, openldap-devel-1.2.9-6.i386.rpm
37 check_mysql, check_mysql_query:
38 - Requires the MySQL libraries available from
40 Lib: libmysql, libmysqlclient
41 Redhat Powertools Source: mysql-3.20.32a-3.i386.rpm, mysql-devel-3.20.32a-3.i386.rpm (these seem to be broken, however)
42 RPMS from www.mysql.org work better
43 Must have mysql_config in PATH or specified with --with-mysql=DIR for DIR/bin/mysql_config
46 - Requires the PostgreSQL libraries available from
47 http://www.postgresql.org/
50 - Requires the DBI libraries available from
51 http://libdbi.sourceforge.net/
54 - Requires the radiusclient-ng library available from:
55 http://developer.berlios.de/projects/radiusclient-ng/
56 - This plugin also works with the original radiusclient library from
57 ftp://ftp.cityline.net/pub/radiusclient/
58 RPM (rpmfind): radiusclient 0.3.2, radiusclient-devel-0.3.2
59 Unless you're using a distro-maintained version of this library you
60 probably want to use radiusclient-ng. The original radiusclient library is
61 unmaintained and has many known issues, particularly with 64bit systems.
64 - Requires the NET-SNMP package available from
65 http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/
67 check_ifstatus/check_ifoperstatus
68 - Requires Net::SNMP perl module
69 http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-authors/id/D/DT/DTOWN/
72 - Requires MRTGEXT NLM for Novell Servers
73 http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?mrtgext
76 - Requires NSClient to run on the NT server to monitor
77 http://nsclient.ready2run.nl/
80 - Requires Network UPS Tools (>= 1.4) to run on the server to monitor
81 http://www.networkupstools.org/
84 - Uses the Linux specific SMART interface [http://smartlinux.sourceforge.net/smart/index.php].
90 You need to use the version of gcc provided by HP at version 3.3.3.
91 Also, you need GNU make 3.8
