It seems there's a bug in HP-UX or you have some extremely odd firewall 
installed. This is supposed to print the ip-address of the connecting host.

Quick and dirty hack: Add "0.0.0.0" to the list of allowed_hosts. This 
will make it work but will most likely also make it possible to query 
the host from any other server on the network.

Re: [Nagios-users] Return Code 127

2006-12-18 Thread Kaplan, Andrew H.
I checked the commands.cfg file and modified the command syntax of check_nrpe
from /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe to $USER1$/check_nrpe.

The result was I am no longer getting the 127 error, but I am now faced
with another issue. 

The new error that I am seeing is:

CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes from daemon. Check the remote server logs for
error messages.

I checked the HP-UX 11.11 box and the syslog.log file had the following 
entry:

Host 0.0.0.0 is not allowed to talk to us!

I checked the nrpe.cfg file and under SERVER ADDRESS, I have nrpe bound to
client's ip address, and under ALLOWED HOSTS, I have several addresses,
including the Nagios 2.6 server, that are permitted to talk to NRPE on the
client.

It's a bit more likely that your check command has an error in it. The
messages you're seeing nearly always mean you're trying to run a plugin
that isn't there.

What does your check command look like?  If it uses variables, make sure
they're set to what you think they are.

Re: [Nagios-users] Return Code 127

2006-12-18 Thread Kaplan, Andrew H.
I checked that out and I confirmed that the nagios user could execute the plugin
by manually running check_nrpe by itself and getting the help information
printed onscreen. 

I confirmed the permissions on the file were 775, while the user and group
owners are nagios:nagios. The location of the directory for the plugin is
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins, and is owned by user and group root:root with the
permissions 775. The parent directory, /usr/lib/nagios, is also owned by
user and group root:root with the permissions 755. 

Do I need to change the ownership on the two parent directories to user and
group nagios:nagios with permissions 775, or is there something else that I
should do?

This usually means Nagios cannot execute the plugin (on the server).
If it was NRPE client-side it would give a different error.

You need to be able to execute your plugin as the Nagios user, so check 
that first and any preceding directories above where that plugin is.
