zabbix_sender windows version

[tvman]

I've compiled native zabbix_sender for win32.
It could be used as normal zabbix_sender with command string parameters.
Also it has SMBIOS parser and by default sends computer name, user name and serial number to zabbix trapper.
It has been tested on WindowsXP Pro, Win2000, Win2003
Interesting? Let me know.

I am definately interested.

download available here
ftp://ftp.mcdean.com/pub/windows/zabbix/zabbix_rep.exe
Who wants get source code of the Win32 sender/reporter, please send me a private message with your email. There is nothing special it's pretty simple clone of the original sender plus SMBIOS parser cloned from dmidecode-2.7

I would very much like a version of your sender.
I've tried using the version on your ftp, but it seems that i can't get it to send a simple value like 1.
If i execute with:

zabbix_rep.exe example.com 10051 x40.company.local:test 1

The value stored in zabbix is:

"[X40] [safl] 1" i need it to only store "1".

Can you give any pointers as to how i simply use it like the original zabbix_sender?

[safl]

Could't get the zabbix_rep.exe to do what i wanted, so i've made a plain Win32 version of zabbix_sender.
It works exactly as the unix version.

If anyone's interested in this plain simple version just drop me a line.

Is there any way to merge this into the main distribution? While not a priority for me at the moment, I can definatley see where this would be an advantage.

safl: do you have any issues with donating the source to alexei?

alexei: again, not really my problem at the moment but identical cross-platform functionality can only help in the long run

elkor> None at all, it would be an honour :) If only Alexei accepts the code into his cvs repository.

Hi all,

I have compiled the native zabbix sender with cygwin. The only limitation is that the interactive mode is not working, but it can be used in scripts. You must place the cygwin1.dll in the same folder as the exe.

The URL for the file is http://200.155.4.237/zabbix_sender.zip

Thank you.

But can you explain how to use it?

I tried:

zabbix_sender.exe myserverip 10051 myclientname icmpping 1

In Zabbix i have configured an Item with icmpping as key and zabbix trapper

Then i added a Trigger. For example:

{myclientname:icmpping.last(0)}>1K

When I start the sender there is no errormessage. But if I click on the trigger i don't see any data.

Can you tell me what's wrong?

Thanks

Sry for my lacking reply haven't checked the forum.

I will make a version available by the end of the day.

Regards!

All right here it is:

http://www.safl.dk/zabbix_sender.zip

It will not be a permanent location, but hopefully if this community want's this windows version then it will hopefully be included in future versions of zabbix.

The zipfile includes the binary executable zabbix_sender.exe, plus a Dev-C++ project with the actual code.

Enjoy!

Thank you! This senderversion runs great!
