FW: Problem With New Client

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

The problem is still there and I have no idea what else should be done. 
I didn't mention this earlier, but the OS of the client is Fedora Core 3.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Hi there --

When I checked the server after having the client run nrpe in daemon mode, 
the error message changed from connection refused to "Are we allowed to connect
to the host?"

I reconfigured the nrpe.cfg file and specifically added the Nagios server and
restarted
the NRPE client in daemon mode. The result was the connection refused error
returning. 

Running the nrpe --help command indicated the nrpe client is version 1.8. The
check_nrpe 
binary on the nagios server is also 1.x. I also verified the Nagios host server
address
is set properly in the nrpe.cfg file.

if successful as a daemon, remove the config from xinetd, and check if you 
can connect over tcp, and if check_nrpe will give you the version of the 
NRPE daemon.

Assumes - you have nagios server host address correctly entered and are 
using the same version of check_nrep and nrpe - there are protocol 
differences between 1.x and 2.x
