Nagios check http with form authentication

authenticationnagios

Several of the websites that require nagios (or icinga) monitoring have form based authentication. Is there a check_ script available that does form based authentication for nagios (or icinga).

Thanks,
Matt

SSH Authentication – How to Make SSH Fail Rather Than Prompt for Password

For OpenSSH there is BatchMode, which in addition to disabling password prompting, should disable querying for passphrase(s) for keys.

BatchMode

If set to “yes”, passphrase/password querying will be disabled. This option is useful in scripts and other batch jobs where no user is present to supply the password. The argument must be “yes” or “no”. The default is “no”.

Sample usage:

ssh -oBatchMode=yes -l <user> <host> <dostuff>
