fyi I have been using nagios and nrpe 9-10 years now; sparc and x86, started back with solaris 7 and now soalris 10, zero error.... mix solaris, aix, hpux, linux. The server has always been Solaris (sparc or x86), use inetd/xinetd/deamon mode again zero error
The one 'problem' i have seen people complain about is ssl and nrpe, read the manual and it should pretty clear what todo, 99.9% is almost the use not having doing some RTFM thingy :) The other one is tcp-wrapper and nrpe, nrpe has a access control buildt-in so I never understood one would need to use tcp-wrapper :) -ls > > >From: N Patil > >To: Eric Pearce > >Cc: Nagios Users Mailinglist > >Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 9:13 PM > >Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Error while configuring NRPE on solaris > > > >Thanks Eric, > >I have followed the same article but it dint help.
