DESCRIPTION
check_ad works as a Nagios NRPE plugin for Active Directory health check.
OPTIONS
--dc
Checks domain controller functionality by using *dcdiag* tool from
Windows Support Tools. Following dcdiag tests are performed :

Windows Support Tools. Following netdiag tests are performed :

--noeventlog
Don't run the dc tests kccevent and frsevent, since their 24-hour
scope may not be too relevant for Nagios.

VERSION
Version 1.4, January 2009
CHANGELOG
changes from 1.3
- Windows 2008 support (checks are done in lowercase only)
- Dropped member test 'trust' as it requires domain admin privileges thus introducing a security weakness.
- Introducing option 'nokerberos' due to netdiag bug (see Microsoft KB870692)
changes from 1.2
- Add command line option 'noeventlog'.
changes from 1.1
- Support for Windows 2000 domains
- Use CRITICAL instead of ERROR
changes from 1.0
- remove sysevent test as it can be many other event producers than active directory.
