A "Nagios" server for the network and server monitoring is available at the address:

http://nagios.ceinge.unina.it


Access to Nagios

It is accessible by authentication, only by specific users:

Name Username
Vittorio Lucignano lucignano@ceinge or lucignano@dbbm
Gianluca Busiello busiello@dbbm
Mauro Petrillo petrillo@ceinge
Angelo Boccia boccia@ceinge
Leandra Sepe sepe@dbbm
Giovanni Paolella paolella@ceinge or paolella@dbbm
Concita Cantarella cantarella@ceinge
Luca Cozzuto cozzuto@ceinge















Nagios configuration location

The Nagios configuration is stored on the server, in a dedicated directory, under /etc/nagios and can be edited by the local users, belonging to the nagios group.

Nagios group : vittorio, gianluca, mauro, giovanni, luca, angelo

So, for any modification, an ssh connection allows the write access to the configuration files:

ssh://gianluca@nagios.ceinge.unina.it:/etc/nagios
sftp://gianluca@nagios.ceinge.unina.it:/etc/nagios

Of course, any tool, supporting ssh, can be used (Textwrangler, Kate, ...)



Nagios configuration organization

The main configuration file is "nagios.cfg". It is the starting point for the nagios server to read the configuration and contains all the needed includes (both files and directories).
