Looks like your proxy requires authentication via Kerberos or NTLM or
GSS-Negotiate. Dunno if Xymon can do those. Luckily the curl tool
(httpp://curl.haxx.se) *can* do those... I haven't had to use them, but it
should not be too hard to bang out an ext script to do the check. Something
along these lines:
#!/bin/sh
curl -x http://ourproxy.ourdomain.com:8080 \
--proxy-anyauth -U hobbituser:hobbitpassword \
-s -S -L -o /dev/null http://www.google.com/
if [ "$?" -eq "0" ]; then
COLOR=green
MESSAGE="Pinged Google OK"
else
COLOR=RED
MESSAGE="Failed to reach Google"
fi
$BB $BBDISP "status www,google,com.home $COLOR `date`
$MESSAGE"
Obviously that can be expanded quite a lot... :) Drop it somewhere on your
Xymon server (maybe in server/ext) and set up a block in
server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg to fire it off as often as you want. You may
need to give the full path for curl, which is probably /usr/bin/curl.

Hi all
I am trying to test our interent connectivity by checking Google through
our proxy.
(Once I get this right, I want to start testing some of our external web
pages in the same manner)
I have configured this in bb-hosts
