In solaris it is critical that you run nrpe on solaris in daemon mode. You need to launch it with like so: /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg -d
Running it like this you should be able to kill it without a problem as it will maintain the pid. Make sure in nrpe.cfg that the nrpe user can write its pid where specified. If you look in syslog you should see details about how it starts. On Jan 19, 2010, at 8:41 AM, Marc Powell wrote: > > On Jan 19, 2010, at 9:22 AM, Juki wrote: > >> How long are they sticking around?
