It seems to me that your nrpe on nagios server is compiled with ssl. Is
right?<br>
<br>
If it's the case, you can use, i believe, the '-n' option of check_nrpe
to disable ssl. Otherwise, you must compile again nrpe on nagios server
with <big>'<span class="127032216-12072004"><font face="Arial" size="2"><big>--enable-ssl'
option. Then, you can call the new check_nrpe as check_nrpe_nossl to
not confuse with the </big></font></span></big><big><span

compiling with ssl support.<br>
<br>
<br>
I see also that you copied some plugins on remote host. Is it the same
version of OS? Normally, you must compile plugins directly on remote
host. Perhaps, the error </big></font></span></big>comes from there.<br>
<br>
I hope that help you.<br>
