Help with nrpe and certificates

[Steve Searle]

Hi,

I have nagios monitoring a number of servers using the nrpe plugin.
Recently one of the checks has failed with a "could not complete SSL
handshake" error.

I think this is because the certificate has either expired or been
re-created (self signed), but I can't find out what certificate I should
create to get round this (you will see I am a newbie in this area).

Can anyone else help, or point me at some relevant documentation.  I
realise I may have got this totally wrong, so please a) be patient, and
b) feel free to point out any blindingly obvious errors I have made.

Thanks

Steve
