I confirmed this on a Lucid container. Setting "server_address=1.2.3.4"
and starting/restarting nagios-nrpe-server reports no error but the log
says otherwise :
# /etc/init.d/nagios-nrpe-server start
Starting nagios-nrpe: nagios-nrpe.
# echo $?
0
# tail -n2 /var/log/daemon.log
Oct 25 10:54:36 server1030 nrpe[20150]: Starting up daemon
Oct 25 10:54:36 server1030 nrpe[20150]: Network server bind failure (99: Cannot
assign requested address)
