Configuring nrpe

[Irene Sakellarakis]

I've read the FAQs and README files. I probably need someone to 
translate for me:)

I've set up check_nrpe on my host machine (RH 7.3) and on my client 
machine (Solaris 7). The host appears to be checking the client, but I get 
an error CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes. Are we allowed to connect to the 
host? 

I have 2 questions: 1) I haven't set up the service (check_disk) on the 
client, which is certainly contributing to my problem. I'm not sure where 
to compile the package. Do I have to install nagios on the client or can I 
put the check command in some other directory?

2) I can't seem to get the nrpe service running, either as part of inetd 
or as a daemon, on the client. No doubt this is the bigger of my 
problems...

I've tried so many things thus far, that I'm a bit confused on how to 
backtrack. Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.


Thanks in advance,
Irene
