I've just had a look and I dont have a check_proxy on the servers that I wish to monitor, could I copy the one thats on the Nagios server and create a check_proxy on the other server and then call it with NRPE?<br />

Hi Guys and Gals, <br />
could any one tell me how to monitor ports that are listen on certain IP Addresses?<br />
<br />
I have set up a Nagios environment and on one of my servers that I monitor using NRPE I would like to monitor for instance port 8080 which is listening on one of its virtual NIC's<br />
<br />
Would anyone know how to do this?<br />
Thanks!

Network Operations

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.
