SSH questions

This is what my server shows, any hints?

SSH server is running 14 Jan 10:42:46 0
Number of running processes sshd 14 Jan 10:42:23 3

Please, give us your trigger expressions. Hint: Having SSHD processes running doesn't mean that SSH connections are accepted.

SSH server is running 14 Jan 10:42:46 0
check_service[ssh] SSH server is running 60 7 some.host.lv:check_service[ssh]

Number of running processes sshd 14 Jan 10:42:23 3
proc_cnt[sshd] Number of running processes sshd 60 7 some.host.lvroc_cnt[sshd]

And ... you can make ssh connection from machine running suckerd.

check_service[ssh] is processed by agent running on monitored server. Probably, the SSH server does not accept connections made from 127.0.0.1.

If you want to check availability of SSH from ZABBIX server, use simple check, i.e. key 'ssh', instead.

Indeed, ssh from localhost is restricted.

Thanks.
