Guntram Blohm's Nagios Binaries

What this page is about

I'm a software developer who does a lot of things - lately, there's increasing customer interest in getting things monitored with nagios.
Unfortunately, the nagios project itself doesn't provide binaries, and many of my customers don't have usable compiler environments, so i decided to compile the binaries myself and put them on a web page for everyone who might happen to need them.
I offered to donate the binaries to the "official" nagios project, but didn't get a reaction yet - that's why the binaries are here. In the future, this page might go away if the nagios project accepts my binaries.
If you have any questions about these binaries, feel free to contact me at nagios1@guntram.de (this address will be changed as soon as it starts accumulating spam).

Über diese Seite

Ich bin Softwareentwickler der eine Menge Dinge tut - in letzter Zeit gab es bei meinen Kunden vermehrt Interesse an Monitoring mit Nagios.
Unglücklicherweise gibt es beim Kunden oft keine brauchbare Kompilierumgebung, deshalb habe ich beschlossen, die Binaries auf eine Webseite zu stellen - sowohl für den Eigengebrauch, als auch für jeden der sie brauchen kann.
Ich habe dem Nagios-Projekt angeboten, diese Binaries offiziell zur Verfügung zu stellen - bisher ohne Reaktion. Falls dies sich ändert und die Binaries offiziell werden, wird diese Seite voraussichtlich sterben.
Wenn Sie irgendwelche Fragen zu den Plugins haben, bin ich unter nagios1@guntram.de erreichbar (diese Mailadresse wird geändert sobald sie beginnt, Spam anzusammeln).

IRIX 6.5.22
Nagios 3.2.0
MD5=159928808fded8a53707c7d45eb2d30d
Unpack to /usr/local/nagios.
To get this running, you need a few packages from the SGI Freeware Site:
gd, freetype, freetype2, libjpeg, libpng, libxpm and libz.
The PHP on that site is actually very old, and since i wasn't able to get PHP5 working on IRIX, so i ported the php UI pages back to HTML.
On my box, i use the Netscape Fasttrack Web server that comes with IRIX to avoid being forced to install apache. I'm still working on an automated configuration script.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.14
MD5=78ce51fefed3ace668f4baec54027108
Unpack to /usr/local/nagios.
Some of the plugins don't make sense with IRIX (like check_apt), need prerequisites i can't provide (like check_flexlm), or should work, but i can't test them (like check_breeze). I decided to include them anyway, so cross your fingers. The base OS plugins like check_procs, check_swap, check_rpc etc. all work.
Several of the plugins need openssl libs installed (those come with IRIX 6.5.22. You should install Patch 5533, or the appropriate patch for your OS release, which fixes some security holes).
Nagios Plugins 1.4.13
MD5=8b22353e7fa9b25145646ae204318be4
Last version of the nagios plugins. Use them if you suspect a bug in the new ones.
Nrpe (Daemon and plugin)
MD5=8f70da6ecff71393ca6aef9b31f39517
The NRPE remote plugin executor daemon, and the plugin to access it.
I included a small patch to this one: the first kill -1 would make it re-read its configuration files, the second one would kill it. This shouldn't happen with this version anymore.

Solaris 10 (sparc)
Nagios 3.2.0
MD5=60f3d7793960687b6e3ae4afa4951172
Unpacks to /usr/local/nagios.
You need SFWgd from the Solaris 10 companion CD to get this running, and SUNWzlib, SUNWpng*, SUNWjpg*, SUNWfreetype2, and SUNWopenssl* from the Solaris 10 DVD.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.14
MD5=3edb5d068f5cb10f535d08b68b3a2f84
Unpack to /usr/local/nagios.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.13
MD5=9095d2fd8322617a1718058d7957b221
Last version of the nagios plugins. Use them if you suspect a bug in the new ones.
Nrpe (Daemon and plugin)
MD5=014cd8fd6209fec88023333a2ea63701
The NRPE remote plugin executor daemon, and the plugin to access it.
I included a small patch to this one: the first kill -1 would make it re-read its configuration files, the second one would kill it. This shouldn't happen with this version anymore.

Solaris 10 (i386)
Nagios 3.2.0
MD5=41289cef9466b5cc09ad0845bb8e77be
Nagios Plugins 1.4.14
MD5=4558ccdc15adbb3b52844d529d24e551
Nagios Plugins 1.4.13
MD5=6497b85c5231e18aab942e93fab412fa
Nrpe (Daemon and plugin)
MD5=feee0a8e6eaf753a14a936ba8aa7d6eb

AIX 5.3 (should work on 6.1 as well)
Nagios 3.2.0
MD5=6dde71d44fef7f6e079f36a0b7d3ef54
Unpacks to /usr/local/nagios.
From the AIX Toolbox for Linux CD, you need to install gd, zlib, libpng, libjpeg, freetype, and openssl.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.14
MD5=7be9b495ab030952d3aaac877d9a233f
Unpack to /usr/local/nagios.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.13
MD5=2ac41d53c123e9d4140fd3314d364ab2
Last version of the nagios plugins. Use them if you suspect a bug in the new ones.
Nrpe (Daemon and plugin)
MD5=b456b172b7bd82c4e53f92128b46c059
The NRPE remote plugin executor daemon, and the plugin to access it.
I included a small patch to this one: the first kill -1 would make it re-read its configuration files, the second one would kill it. This shouldn't happen with this version anymore.
Binaries for openssl 0.9.7
When AIX 5.3 came out, IBM provided openssl 0.9.7 on their AIX for Linux toolbox. Later, they upgraded to openssl 0.9.8, and this is the version you now get when you download openssl/openssh from their web site. Unfortunately, this requires Update AIX-5300-5, but IBM doesn't tell you that. So, if you dont want to or can't upgrade your Base OS, you'll need these 0.9.7 binaries; on newer systems, you'll need the ones above.
This applies to nrpe and plugins only; nagios itself doesn't need ssl.
Nagios Plugins 1.4.14

HP/UX
I'd like to provide this as well, but have no machine for it, and used machines are still quite expensive to get. So it'll take a while until i can provide binaries, unless you'd like to provide a machine, OS, and compiler for me?

My Build environment
Build environment
MD5=9ede5eda9af0263d43fe48b5726cffa7
This is my build environment - it consists of a set of patches that are required to make nagios compile on various platforms, and a shell script that unpacks the sources, patches them, runs configure, patches again, runs make, installs to a temporary location, and creates the tar binaries that i move to the web site.
Could be documented better, but it's a start. And, the GPL requires me to distribute the sources to any modifications, so here they are ;)
