Puppet-NSClient

This is a module that will manage and install the NSClient on Windows servers from the official NSClient site.

Build Status

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'],
}
