Nagios Support Forum

I downloaded this file:
https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... 3.3.tar.gz
In the "tools" folder, this is what I see:
build_perl_modules build_perl_modules.in tinderbox_build

In the instructions for compile+ install, one of the steps is as follows: "./tools/setup". But I don't see the setup file in the tar.gz in the tools folder.

For some reason I see two configuration files:
/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
/etc/nrpe/nrpe.cfg

Which one do I want to update? Why are there two?

Sorry, wrong host. 10.0.1.65 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5666 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1388/nrpe tcp6 0 0 :::5666 :::* LISTEN 1388/nrpe Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2020-09-24 11:16 EDT Nmap scan report for <vm-name> (10.0.1.65) Host is up (0.00018s latency).

I am not sure about that - how would I be able to tell? Let's do some troubleshooting. Run the following commands from the command line, and show the output: On the client (remote host): ip addr netstat -apn | grep 5666 /path/to/nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_procs -a '-w 400 -c 500' cat /etc/xinetd.d/...

Yes, it was. I am not sure about that - how would I be able to tell? ############################################################################# # # Sample NRPE Config File # # Notes: # # This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon.

This seems to have fixed it for this one host. I then applied the fix for another host, and it is still broken. Here is the output of the command:

I am still getting this error message: NRPE: Command 'check_procs' not defined ############################################################################# # # Sample NRPE Config File # # Notes: # # This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon.

The status is "Unknown": CHECK_NRPE: Receive header underflow - only 0 bytes received (4 expected).
