2016-11-08check_dig: use +retry instead of +triesGravatar Christian Kujau
After upgrading from an Ubuntu/15.10 to 16.04 installation, I noticed that check_dig is always returning a WARNING: $ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig -l localhost -v /usr/bin/dig -p 53 @127.0.0.1 localhost A +tries=3 +time=6 Looking for: 'localhost' DNS WARNING - 0.008 seconds response time (dig returned an error status)|time=0.008274s;;;0.000000 The older Ubuntu installation got its check_dig from the nagios-plugins-standard package[0] which did not include the +tries option. The current Ubuntu version provides its check_dig from the monitoring-plugins-standard package[1], which _does_ use the +tries option that was introduced with df53473[2]. On my system, it so happens that /usr/bin/dig is provided not by the (BIND) dnsutils package but by knot-dnsutils[3] from the Knot DNS project. The Knot dig(1) command doesn't support the +tries option[4] but does support +retry (which is also supported[5] by the BIND dig(1) command). One way to fix that would be for me to install the BIND dnsutils package. But I did not want to do that: it's so much larger in size and pulls in much more dependencies than the knot-dnsutils package. The patch below changes check_dig to use +retry instead of +tries. Both options are similar, but not the same: +retry - Sets the number of times to retry UDP queries to server to T instead of the default, 2. Unlike +tries, this does not include the initial query As number_tries seems to be hard coded to 3, I've lowered DEFAULT_TRIES to 2 so check_dig should behave as before (with +tries=3). Thanks, Christian.

check_dig was casesensitive if an expected answer is given. Switching strstr with strcasestr fixes this issue While testing i noticed a bug where expected is not an exact match New issue for that is opened #1385 This fix closes #1233

2014-07-30check_dig: takes into account the -4 and -6 switchGravatar Alexander Wittig
Fix automatic DNS server name detection to honor -4 and -6 switches (default to 127.0.0.1 or ::1 respectively, i.e. if -6 is given ::1 is used instead of 127.0.0.1)
2014-07-30check_dig: Fix to work with dig and drill toolGravatar Alexander Wittig
FreeBSD starting with version 10 is shipped with ldns instead of bind as resolver. Consequently the dig tool in base is replaced by drill. While dig can still be installed as a third party application, it would be nice to make do with the tools available in the system already. This patch rearranges the command line used to invoke dig slightly so that it can be used with both dig and drill (tested with dig 9.8.3-P1 and 9.9.4 as well as drill 1.6.16). It would be really neat if the configure script could be changed to automatically pick up drill when dig is not available (or the other way around), but my autotools-foo is not good enough for that. This part of the patch is an extended version of the locally maintained patch currently deployed in the FreeBSD ports tree by Dmitry Sivachenko.

which is already set to 10 seconds
2014-01-30check_dig: patch to make dig honor -t optionGravatar Jan Wagner
When a timeout value is specified with the -t option, dig will sometimes timeout before the timer is actually reached. The problem occurs because the check_dig plugin does not pass the specified timeout value to dig, leaving dig to timeout with it's default value which seems to be around 10-15seconds. To reproduce: time ./check_dig -H 127.0.0.2 -l www.google.com -t 30 It will not run for 30secs, which is the expected behaviour. The following will work, because the timeout is less than the default dig timeout, so the plugin cancels the dig command: time ./check_dig -H 127.0.0.2 -l www.google.com -t 2 This fix passes the timeout value to dig, and sets the number of retries which tends to vary from system to system by default. Closes #1168

2014-01-19Project rename initial commit.Gravatar Monitoring Plugins Development Team
This is an initial take at renaming the project to Monitoring Plugins. It's not expected to be fully complete, and it is expected to break things (The perl module for instance). More testing will be required before this goes mainline.
2013-05-12plugins: rename runcmd's signal handler.Gravatar Diego Elio Pettenò
The previous name would collide with popen's. Even if the two are never used together, it's still a good idea not to have the same symbol in multiple object files.
2013-01-23check_dig: query transport selection supportGravatar Ville Mattila
Add command line options -4 and -6 (--use-ipv4 and --use-ipv6) to check_dig. Effectively this adds no new functionality, just a shortcut for: check_dig -A "-4" check_dig -A "-6" Needed for using check_dig with the check_v46 wrapper (see e.g. https://gitorious.org/nagios-monitoring-tools/nagios-monitoring-tools/blobs/master/check_v46) which requires -4/-6 command line option support.
