Problems Using NRPE 1.8 with HP-UX 10.20

Thanks for your e-mail, here are the answers to your questions:

Are you using tcp wrappers? For vinilla NRPE you really should.
	The HP-UX box does not have the hosts.allow or hosts.deny files.
	Therefore TCP wrappers are not being used on this machine.

what is the line in your services.cfg for NRPE?
	The line in the services.cfg file for the client is the following:
	check_command		check_nrpe!check_disk1

what is the line in inetd.conf for NRPE?
	The line in inetd.conf is as follows:
	nrpe     stream  tcp	nowait  nagios	/usr/sbin/tcpd
/opt/nrpe/bin/nrpe -c /opt/nrpe/nrpe.cfg --inetd

did you kill -HUP your inetd PID?
	I did not kill -HUP the inetd PID

as the nagios user on the nagios monitoring box, can you run check_nrpe
-H <hostIP>? is that when you get the connection refused error?
	I ran the command mentioned above and I got the connection refused
error.

Hi there,

I recently compiled and installed NRPE 1.8 on an HP-UX 10.20 machine.
The configure and make processes indicated the source code was compiled
successfully. The plug-ins that I installed were those that had been
compiled on an HP-UX 10.20 machine. When I run the plug-ins manually,
they operate without any problems.

I am trying to get the Nagios server to be able to monitor the HP-UX
machine. However, I am confronted by a Connection refused by host error
message. I modified the inetd.conf and services files on the machine
according to the instructions included in the NRPE client. The nrpe.cfg
file was also modified to allow access where necessary. Does anyone have
any ideas?
