this will always be difficult, since tests are dependant of the network. We've setup a master test "ping" and other tests wont be performed when this fails and therefor the downtime isn't calculated in a service test (but is in the ping test). of course this not the real uptime %, but at l...

profile manager doesn't seem to have a wildcard option or a way to import/export the settings, which means we have to created this manually. not an option for us... (probably not smart to be able to have an export option for passwords anyway :)) Yes, I suppose such option will never be implemented ...

we monitor 1000's of servers. All servers have a localadmin and password the same as the localadmin which runs hostmonitor (domains are different). 99% of the tests automatically are created by a batch file and imported in hostmonitor. Just specific checks on databases and urls are edited manually. ...

we use a specific account for starting up the service, bc we monitor servers outside our domain. By using localsystem as startup we never got it working. (if account and password are the same, windows systems will recognise this, but this doesnt seem to work for impersonation). i'll be testing this ...

it just seems to fail when this is set to the same account, other than localsystem that is. (impersonate restriction of windows?) I am definitely sure, when user is a member of the Administrators group, it works fine. In other case it depends on your security policies. Iimpersonate restriction? Mig...

it fails when the service account and the account specified in hostmonitor > option > startup > service is the same account. Therefor the rights are the same. I'm using an administrator account for this. hostmonitor/service account system localadmin system ok ok localadmin ok fails

this is in a test environment. i've made all the other options too... impersonate service account in hostmonitor as localsystem. serviceaccount "my account" and the other way round. Both work just fine. it just seems to fail when this is set to the same account, other than localsystem that...

i've been able to reproduce the error with v6.10. I've installed hostmonitor and service. Then i've set in hostmonitor startup > service > log on as "my username". In services.msc i've set "my username" as startup account as well. I'd made a simple shell script: @echo off IF &quo...

the full path doesnt seem to work. I was wondering if the reason of the "unable to start script" error is logged somewhere. restricted access to the cmd file would give the w32 error access denied (0x80070005). if i have a similar error i'd would have more of a direction to look for proble...

the cmd.exe isn't restricted. i suppose this would stop the gui and service cmd startup, not only the service.

we cant do that. simply because we do tests to other machines using that account. I think we set it up like this, because the impersonate function didn't work correctly in the 5.30 version, or maybe the previous one (4.xx was the first we used i think). when we want to edit tests, we stop the servic...

Sorry, could not reproduce such problem. Could you export that certain test into file, using File > Export To Text File menu and export script into file, using Script Manager > Export button, and send import file to support@ks-soft.net? BTW. What account you have specified on Options >Service page?...

i'm using the cmd /c %Script% %Params% command and just copied the script in the shell command script field. i have no reference to a script located somewhere on a disk (made a copy of the file compare example script and replaced that code with my code; it's a cmd batch). besides, that wouldn't expl...

Hello, i've made a batchfile to get the appropriate strings from a logfile. The batch works fine when run manually. It also runs fine when hostmonitor is in gui mode, but when it runs as a service i get an "unable to start script" error. It can't be an authentication problem, since in gui ...

is this only snmpget functionality, or can hostmonitor now also receive traps?
