NRPE: static linked libraries? (solved)

[Thomas.Zimmer at oppenheim.de]

The prob was solved, while typing this mail (as often ;) ):

Meanwhile, I managed it to link the ssl-libs statically (I have no root-access to our machines, so I can´t simply install libs)
Perhaps my config will help to solve the prob:

NRPE-Version used: 2.0
Solaris-Compile-System: 
SunOS ### 5.9 Generic_118558-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4
Exec-Sys/inetd:
SunOS ### 5.8 Generic_117350-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4

For compilation I changed src/Makefile:
...
LDFLAGS= -L/opt/prod/nagios/lib/ssl/lib /opt/prod/nagios/lib/ssl/lib/libssl.a /opt/prod/nagios/lib/ssl/lib/libcrypto.a
... 

Inetd.conf:
...
nrpe    stream   tcp    nowait  nagios  /opt/prod/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /opt/prod/nagios/cfg/nrpe.cfg -i
...
Also tried (as described on http://nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=152):
nrpe    stream   tcp    nowait  nagios  /opt/prod/nagios/bin/nrpe /opt/prod/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /opt/prod/nagios/cfg/nrpe.cfg -i

Services:
nrpe            5666/tcp        nagios          # nagios

Ldd shows:
[###]/opt/prod/nagios $ ldd  bin/nrpe
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        libmp.so.2 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-4/lib/libc_psr.so.1
=> Everything ok.

Started as Deamon:
=> Everything ok. May reqest NRPE from other machines

Started under inetd:
[###]/opt/prod/nagios $ ps -ef|grep inetd
  nagios  3491     1  0 10:58:38 ?        0:00 inetd -s /etc/inetd.conf
nagios@### /opt/prod/nagios/install_dir/clients/nrpe-2.0 > src/check_nrpe -H ### -c check_load
OK - load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.01
=> Everything ok.

Now inetd started under root:
[###]/root # ps -ef|grep inet
    root  3499     1  0 11:00:24 ?        0:00 inetd -s /etc/inetd.conf
nagios@### /opt/prod/nagios/install_dir/clients/nrpe-2.0 > src/check_nrpe -H ### -c check_load
OK - load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.01

=> Ups, everything ok, too. Must have been missed something yesterday...

Thanks a lot :), have a nice day!

Yes. The man-page for your linker (or possibly your compiler) will tell 
you how to do this.

This sounds strange. Where are the ssl-libs located? Is that directory 
one where the dynamic link loader looks for libraries (mentioned in 
/etc/ld.so.conf or LD_RUN_PATH (for ELF systems) or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (for 
ancient unix type systems)? Have you run ldconfig (or your system's 
equivalence) since you installed the libraries?

Check the above and do the appropriate fix, or link nrpe statically.
