Good morning folks. I was taking someone's advice and decided to try
NRPE for remote command checks FROM a linux nagios server against a
Solaris remote server. I am running nagios-2.7 on a Fedora Core 6 server
and nrpe-1.9_5 on a solaris 9 remote host along with
nagios-plugins-1.3.1_2 for sparc. I have the nrpe running as a daemon at
the moment to keep things simple, and without SSL, have the nrpe.cfg
tweaked to run on port: 5666/U: nagios/G: nagios and the example check
defined:

 

Command[check_load]=/usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 15,10,5
-c 30,25,20

 

And run the following from the nagios server while the nrpe daemon is
running on the remote host:

 

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -n -H remote.host.name -p 5666 -t 30
-c check_load

 

And I continually get the proverbal 

 

nrpe[427]: [ID 421412 daemon.error] Could not read request from client,
bailing out... 

 

error. Any thoughts or ideas on what I could fix/check/reconfigure?

 

Thanks in advance

Michael Weiner
