check_nrpe solaris woes

List folks,

Ok, I've been a long time user of nagios and love it.  Recently I have 
added a new Solaris 9 box to the mix and wanted to utilize the nrpe 
goodies to monitor disk/procs/messages and such but ran into a huge 
roadblock. 

All libs are present, the nrpe daemon fires up ok, config looks good(the 
same a other working linux/bsd clients except for the actual params)

What I get from the chck_nrpe -H hostname -c check_disk
   
        NRPE: Unable to read output

I thought it was firewall related so I moved it to the same local 
subnet.  No luck. 
I thought it was config issues, so I hacked away with new values.  No luck
I thought it was compile issues, so I recompiled with any feasable 
options(no ssl just to be complete).  No luck.


There are no messages logged to syslog(even with debug enabled...go 
figure).  All plugins called to be exacuted on the remote host work fine 
on the nagios host(both are solaris 9 sparc) check_nrpe works fine on 
all other Intel hosts fine.

Any thoughts or words of wisdom?


_Terry
