For your information, from the main server, when i try to connect to the remote server giving me trouble with this command : nmap <ipadress> -p 5666 it gives me this PORT STATE SERVICE 5666/tcp closed nrpe Could it be because the nrpe.cfg file on the remote server is called nrpe.cfg.rpmsave that i f...

Hi !

This command gives me nothing, and i tried it on both servers.

For information, it's for a private company, so i know they install their software via proprietary packages, so maybe that's why.

I just found on the remote server (the one who gives me trouble) that in /etc/nagios there is this file called nrpe.cfg.rpmsave

Is it the file that we were looking for? Should i rename it to nrpe.cfg ? I'm not the one who set up this server so I don't know why the .rpmsave at the end of the file

Please save me

Do you guys need more info

Ok, for the first command ( ps -ef | egrep -i -e 'nrpe|ncpa' ) on the main server : root 36412 36196 0 09:54 pts/0 00:00:00 egrep -i -e nrcpe|ncpa For the second command (netstat - an | grep 5666), it gives me nothing On the remote server (the one i can't connect to) it tells me : root 17044 17012 0...

Hi, Since a few months, Nagios Core, on its interface, can't connect to one of my servers, saying : (No output on stdout) stderr: connection to adress xx.xxx.xxx.209 port 5666 : Connection refused The host is on a CentOs server, as well as the client.
