Problems with two plugins timing out

[narendran.neelamegam at wipro.com]

Does the system in ? have multiple NIC? Are you sure SSH and SMTP are
listening on the IP address which you have specified in your command.
Can you do a telnet test on these ports?
Can you disable iptables and test
telnet <ip address> 25
telnet <ip address> 22

The location of the plugins is the same as the others:
/usr/local/npre/libexec

 

> Do they have required nagios user ownership.

 

The ownership of the plugins, along with the others is as follows:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios  62638 2007-11-28 11:40 check_ssh

-rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios 334907 2007-11-28 11:40 check_http

 

> Have you enabled debugging options in nrpe to check?

 

I did have debugging turned on via the nrpe.cfg file on the client.
However, even after I tried

manually running the plugins in question, there was no record of the
plugins recorded in

the /var/log/messages file on the client, or in a similar file on the
server. 

 

> Please post the command which you are running locally and from Nagios
server?

The commands that I tried are listed below: 

 

-bash-3.2$ ./check_ssh -H <ip address>

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_ssh -H <hostname>

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_ssh -H <hostname> -p 22

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_ssh -H <ip address> -p 22

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_smtp -H <hostname>

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_smtp -H <ip address>

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_smtp -H <ip address> -p 25

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds

-bash-3.2$ ./check_smtp -H <hostname> -p 25

CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 10 seconds
