About Nagios Mail notification
Dear Friends,
I have installed Nagios core on my Centos 6.2 server with mailx , postfix.
But I do not know how to configure mail notification , check mail
notification is working or not . I searched on google but not able to
search any good answer so please help me friend
Sorry for top-posting i'm at blackberry cellphone.
You can try with this command in your terminal:
$echo "this is a test" | mail -s username@yourdomain.com
You will receibe a mail at username@yourdomain.com if your mailx configuration is ok.
Read the log of mailx in /var/log/mail.log (i don't remember the exact place i'm using postfix).

Which might be exactly the problem here.
A (metric) ton of Google hits usually contains 999.999 kilograms of
forum postings advising you to use Google, telling you that you really
don't want what you are asking for, and similar useless drivel,
effectively hiding the one gram of information you are looking for.
<hhgg>I've gone off the idea of Google. It's overrated.</hhgg>
SCNR,

When saying something like that it's good to mention a few examples of the search terms
you're using--too often, people say I googled, and it didn't work, but
didn't really google.
I would try using the article at the CentOS wiki on nagios--even though it's dated, it's still one
of the best docs on nagios (which generally has horrible docs, at least it did when I set it up years ago).
See how far you get with that.
I'm assuming that generally, using the mail command on your machine works. If it doesn't, then notifications
won't work either.
Joyce: But maybe, we could spend some time together soon? Some night
when I'm not being held hostage by a raving psychotic.

Bear in mind OP posted the same question to the debian list
simultaneously substituting Debian server for CentOS & also maybe
English may not be his first language & as we all know even native
English speakers don't speak English too cleverly half the time on Google.
Cheers,

Ah, that's not so good. However, seriously, I remember when I was
assigned to set up nagios, and until I found Max's articles, I was at sea
myself.
Squeeze, Beefy, Snow Leopard, Precise--one could make a song out of
that--or maybe it's a good title for a band.
