Puppet-NSClient
This is a module that will manage and install the NSClient on Windows servers from the official NSClient site.
Usage
The module consists of a single class
include 'nsclient'
Unless specified, this will install the latest stable build (0.4.1.101) of the nsclient for x64 machines. If you want to install a different version, then you can tell the module to do so:
class { 'nsclient':
package_source_location => 'http://myhost.com',
package_name => '0.3.1.msi'
}
The default location and default package version can be found in params.pp.
Setting Allowed Hosts
In order for our hosts to communicate back to Nagios / Icinga servers, we need to set the hosts. We can do this as follows:
class { 'nsclient':
allowed_hosts => ['172.16.0.3'],
}
class { 'nsclient':
allowed_hosts => ['10.21.0.0/22','10.21.4.0/22'],
}
