Description

  • The NTP configuration is more restrictive than in the previous distribution versions, so an explicit configuration line is necessary to explicitly authorise the nagios server.
  • The nagios free memory check fails because the free output changed. The Ubuntu maintainers are so lazy that the patch will never be backported to 16.04.
  • The nagios swap check also changed behaviour and it fails when swap is disabled

The check_memory now is handled. On Ubuntu 16.04 a fixed version is installed and used by nrpe.

We chose to disable the check on the swap, it's not so useful in the first place.
I still added a fix to the nrpe configuration, just in case we want to enable the check again.
