At this point it's much more about the unending chain of dependencies that I'm running into trying to use RPMs
rpm -ivh nagios-nrpe-2.12-2.i586.rpm warning: only V3 signatures can be verified, skipping V4 signature error: Failed dependencies: libwrap-libs is needed by nagios-nrpe-2.12-2 nagios-common is needed by nagios-nrpe-2.12-2 rc-scripts is needed by nagios-nrpe-2.12-2 rpm -ivh libwrap-libs-7.6-43.i686.rpm error: Failed dependencies: rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by libwrap-libs-7.6-43 rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.6-1 is needed by libwrap-libs-7.6-43 rpm -ivh nagios-common-3.0.3-2.i586.rpm error: Failed dependencies: /bin/id is needed by nagios-common-3.0.3-2 /usr/bin/getgid is needed by nagios-common-3.0.3-2 rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.6-1 is needed by nagios-common-3.0.3-2 rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1aa78495 error: Failed dependencies: beecrypt >= 4.1.2 is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf getconf(GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION) = NPTL is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libcrypto.so.6 is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libneon.so.25 is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpm-5.0.so is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpm-5.0.so(LIBRPM_0) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpmdb-5.0.so is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpmdb-5.0.so(LIBRPMDB_0) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpmio-5.0.so is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf librpmio-5.0.so(LIBRPMIO_0) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libselinux.so.1 is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf libssl.so.6 is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by rpm-5.0-0.2.0.el5.rf You see it gets a little bit irritating after a while. I'd really love to just be able to compile the NRPE from source, but then we're back at the original error which I was trying to correct. -----Original Message----- From: Brian A.
