Hi Sukesh,

>From reading your email i take it you can sucessfully connect to the
remote NRPE host via telnet.

   user2 at usel <mailto:user2 at usel> :~> telnet host1.somedomain.com 5666
   Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.199...
   Connected to host1.somedomain.com.
   Escape character is '^]'.

If this is correct then NRPE is accepting connections.

You said in the previous mail that NRPE is working correctly on one
machine but not on another. This sounds like you have some configuration
differences between the two boxes.

We really need to have more details to help you with this problem.

What OS is running on the two remote boxes?

Is it the same OS on both boxes.

Can you send snippets off your configuration THAT RELATE TO nrpe?
NRPE.CFG. SERVICES.CFG CHECKCOMMAND.CFG etc

Have you carried out the following

Turn on debugging on the remote host running nrpe and see what comes out
in the logs?

To do this edit your nrpe.cfg file and turn debugging on

debugging=1

An example off NRPE debugging turned on
