nrpe-2.0 configure for Mandrake

[Albert Whale]

If you are compiling the nrpe plugin for use with the Nagios RPMs built 
by Mandrake, I have found the following configuration command useful 
with Mandrake's implementation.

./configure --libexecdir=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins --prefix=/usr/local/bin 
--sysconfdir=/etc --enable-command-args

Mandrake actually implements a prefix of /usr/bin for it's binaries, but 
I prefer to imstall Non-OS related packages in a different directory tree.

If you use the --enable-command-args you will also need to update the 
nrpe.cfg and permit command options.  SSL is enabled on Mandrake by 
default, and is recommended per the information in the SECURITY document.

Hope this helps.
