nrpe - ssl handshake not completed

[Noah Leaman]

I had this problem too and the fix for me had nothing to do with the 
libssl or libcrypto libs or ./configure --disable-ssl. What I was doing 
was mistakingly running nrpe with the wrong config file (doh!). I was 
running:

     ./nrpe -c commands.cfg -d

instead of:

     ./nrpe -c nrpe.cfg -d

In fact, I found that you can run nrpe with an empty text file as a 
config file and it doesn't seem to have a problem:

     touch test.cfg
     ./nrpe -c test.cfg -d

... no problem until you try to connect:

     ./check_nrpe -H hostname.domain.com -c check_users
     CHECK: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

So make SURE that the config file your feeding nrpe is the actual nrpe 
config file and not the commands config or something. Hope this helps 
some.
