<div>that's the entry in the .cfg file, if I run this for
example, you can see it does give me output:</div>
<div>
<div><b>/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H localhost</b></div>
<div><b>NRPE v2.12</b></div>
</div>
<div><b><br>
</b></div>
<div>but other than that, I just run the command as below?</div>
<div><b>/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H localhost -c
check_users</b> (I'm confused on this part - does this
particular "check_users" need this at the end? " -w 5 -c 10"
when that's done, I get <i>Unable To read output </i>)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>i've checked permissions also on the
/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/* directories and only the
../nagios/ directory has nagios.nagios as the owner, the
rest have root.root -- i've seen permissions listed in
other forums as the possible culprit, but my permissions
seem right? I've only got "nagios" listed as the nrpe_user
and the nrpe_group in the nrpe.cfg file -- do I need to add
"nrpe" and/or "root" to this?</div>

<br>
when you try running one of the command localy on the remote machine
what is the output ?<br>
<br>
"/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_users -w 5 -c 10 " - what does this
command return ?<br>
