OK i recompiled nrpe and it now runs as the nagios user - i have a different issue though ;) Even if i run check_nrpe locally on the box i get the following error # ./check_nrpe -H xxxxxx0204 -c check_hpasm UNKNOWN - insufficient rights to call sudo /sbin/hpasmcli BUT nrpe is running as the user nagios $ ps auxwww | grep nrpe nagios 23963 0.0 0.0 10232 876 ? Ss 15:10 0:00 /opt/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /opt/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg -d and if i run the plugin exactly how its called from nrpe using the nagios user it works fine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/nagios/libexec/check_hpasm OK - Chassis Status OK so anyone got any thoughts on how to debug this? thanks > Nagios-users mailing list > Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users > ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting > any issue. > ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
