Hello,
<BR>
<BR>
Are you allowed to run such command from your nagios server, and query your FreeBSD server ?
<BR>
You can try telnet FreeBSD_Server 5666 (If you've set the nrpe service on the port 5666, as the default one)
<BR>
Did you restart your (x)inetd to take in charge the new service ?
<BR>
<BR>
HTH
<BR>
Regards
<BR>
Pascal Miquet
