(modify below to point to the correct paths): You can test if this is the case before executing the chcon commands by running: $ sudo echo 0 > /selinux/enforce Then let schedule another nrpe check, if it succeeds, then run the chcon commands. $ sudo echo 1 > /selinux/enforce $ sudo chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t /usr/local/nagios/sbin/ $ sudo chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t /usr/local/nagios/share/ $ sudo chcon -R -t httpd_sys_script_rw_t /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/ -----Original Message----- From: <a href="mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net">nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net</a> [mailto:<a href="mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net">nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net</a>] On Behalf Of Hiamal Llanos Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 17:06 To: <a href="mailto:nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net"> nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a> Subject: [Nagios-users] check_nrpe trouble Hi, I'm having trouble with check_nrpe and I don't know whats wrong, what I'm doing wrong. I followed the nagios and nrpe doc's but it don't work :-P /var/log/nagios2/nagios.log says: SERVICE ALERT: otherhost;nrpe_load;UNKNOWN;SOFT;1;(No output returned from plugin) But if I run the command on the terminal window it works happily: $ sudo -u nagios /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H otherhost -c check_load OK - load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00|load1=0..... Hope someone has som clues what could be wrong. The Nagios server host is a i386 smp with Debian Etch and otherhost is a amd64 x2 also with Debian Etch. On the Nagios server I'm runnig: nagios2 2.6-2+etch1 nagios-nrpe-plugin 2.5.1-3 nagios-nrpe-server 2.5.1-3 on otherhost: nagios-nrpe-plugin 2.5.1-3 nagios-nrpe-server 2.5.1-3 Nagios config: define service{ use generic-service host_name otherhost service_description nrpe_load check_command check_nrpe!c heck_load } nrpe config: command[check_load]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20 TiA</blockquote><div> I would check everything from the server to the client to give a clue to problem. You can try checking in the following order. 1. run the check command locally ie. on the nrpe server run as user nagios ( or whatever user is configured in nrpe.cfg but nagios is default ) PATH/check_load -w 15..<snip> 2. from the client run the command PATH/check_nrpe -H <nrpe server> -c check_load These tests should narrow down your problem.
