	Hi Folks,
	
	I am setting up Nagios with my first client.  This is the output
I get when I execute the
	command from the command line from the Nagios host is
	
	 "NRPE:  Unable to read output "
	
	It also shows up in the nagios.log.
	
	The command line exec is:
	 
	./check_nrpe -H 83556-dev.slc.com -c check_total_procs
	
	I have nrpe running on the client:
	
	nagios   25998     1  0 Apr10 ?        00:00:05
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/nrpe.cfg -d
	
	I am running xinetd and the service definitions on the client
are in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg:
	
	command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5
-c 10
	command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w
15,10,5 -c 30,25,20
	command[check_disk1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20
-c 10 -p /dev/hda3
	command[check_disk2]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20
-c 10 -p /dev/hda2
	
command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5
-c 10 -s Z
	command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs
-w 150 -c 200
	
	Why am I getting this error?
	
	Thanks, --Joe McCaughan
	
	
	
Joe, 
 This might be a dumb question, but does the directory
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/ exist on the client (83556-dev.slc.com)? 
Can you run /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c 200 as the
NAGIOS user and see a return?
What version nrpe & check_nrpe? 

Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
