I used to work for IBM on their RS/6000 hardware, so I have a fond spot for AIX. However, I don't have any access to servers to develop on. If someone could grant me internet access to their server, I could spend some time on specific problems for the plugins.
Alternatively, please consider running tinderbox builds on your AIX server and sending results back: http://tinderbox.altinity.org. This will make sure the plugins continue to work on your favourite platform.
(Note, snapshots, and thus builds, aren't working at the moment because SF's shell servers are down.)

We ended up writing our own plugins on the older *nix boxes. But now even those are outdated and have be to redone for AIX5L. Some of us needs(probably i will sometime soon) to take ownership on the aix front. This is the only way we will ever get stable plugins for aix/hpux/solaris. Is there a plugin roadmap on the risc front?. Trevor

Am I on the wrong track? Has anyone made NRPE work on AIX such that when we run the following test on the host instead of getting:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H grenados CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes. Are we allowed to connect to the host?
we get
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H cairns NRPE v1.9
as expected?

I found some more information:
The following message gets written to syslog:
/var/log/daemon:Jul 14 16:20:09 ausyd-dw01 daemon:err|error nrpe[876772]: Error: Request packet had invalid CRC32. /var/log/daemon:Jul 14 16:20:09 ausyd-dw01 daemon:err|error nrpe[876772]: Client request was invalid, bailing out...
I see this happens in the following code fragment:
/***** DECRYPT REQUEST ******/
/* check the crc 32 value */ packet_crc32=ntohl(pkt->crc32_value); pkt->crc32_value=0L; calculated_crc32=calculate_crc32((char *)pkt,sizeof(packet)); if(packet_crc32!=calculated_crc32){ syslog(LOG_ERR,"Error: Request packet had invalid CRC32."); return ERROR; }
Anyone have any idea why this would happen? (My configure options etc were given in previous post).
Thanks, Alex

From the Nagios host I'm getting: # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H grenados CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes.

If anyone can help I'd be most appreciative; I'm out of ideas as to how to troubleshoot this any further. Thanks in advance, Alex
