SquidGuard is a URL redirector used to use blacklists with the proxysoftware Squid. There are two big advantages to squidguard: it is fast and it is free.
Check Plugins
The check plugins for Nagios are packaged separately from the main program so we'll need to download the latest version (version 1.4.14 at time of writing), compile and install those.
cd /extra/src
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/nagiosplug/nagios-plugins-1.4.14.tar.gz
tar zxvf nagios-plugins-1.4.14.tar.gz
cd nagios-plugins-1.4.14
If you are wanting to monitor network devices using SNMP, you'll need to make sure the net-snmp
and net-snmp-utils
packages are installed:
yum install net-snmp net-snmp-utils
Configure, compile and install the plugins, using a Redhat fix since we used CentOS:
./configure \
--with-nagios-user=nagios \
--with-nagios-group=nagios \
--enable-redhat-pthread-workaround
make
make install
