[PMX:#] Modifying NRPE build

[Collins, Steve]

I am planning to build NRPE so that we can look more clearly at servers hosted by our outsourced secure host.  A part of the anal secure hosting requirements means that the likelihood of getting a firewall port opened to allow NRPE to work on its native port is next to impossible.  However, I can use port 443 (SSL).

I assume I will need to modify the NRPE build scripts to allow this, but would really appreciate some advice on what I should be doing and how.

TIA.

Steve
