    Hi,
    I just installed Pandora FMS 3.2 and like it.
    I used the free finished suse image.
    The problem is that i canĀ“t send mail larm.

    I tryed the standard settings in pandora_server.conf.
    I have tryed to set all the mta_ like mta_address smtp.server

    Nothing happens.
    How can i test the settings?
    What do I miss?

    Second question:
    The uptime for a server is set in wrong time format I would like to have it in hours and minutes.
    Can I change that anywhere?

    //Peter

    Check the FAQ in Pandora about this problem:

    Receiving mails when an alert is triggered

    If your problem persists, please provide us a more detailed information, so we can diagnose it and answer faster.

    Feel free to attach screenshots with your configuration as well, as long as you remove all the sensitive and personal information you don’t want show.

    About your second question, currently there’s no way to modify the server uptime in Pandora using the web interface (it’s an interesting feature request and we’ll consider adding this option in the next version)

    Meanwhile, you can create a module in your pandora_agent.conf (located in the servers where you want to get the uptime) with the following syntax:

    module_begin
    module_name Server Uptime
    module_type generic_data_string
    module_exec uptime| cut -f 5 -d ' ' | tr -d ','
    module_description Server uptime in hours and minutes (hh:mm)
    module_end
    

    Regards.

    Hi,
    Thank you for the answer!
    Everything works now!

    One more question.
    Are there any page where I can find every check the system can do like the one you sent me?
    Both for Linux and Windows.

    Regards Peter
