Re: nrpe throwing not allowed to talk to us error

I don't have anything else to add other than.The policy in Tripwire relates to http proxies.

When all said and done the nrpe.cfg ACL did its job.

Not only is nrpe affected but also EMC navisphere and Oracle cssd. I just watched one of my colleagues interactively with a tai...

Re: nrpe throwing not allowed to talk to us error

Which is exactly my point.

As initially said this configuration works perfectly for the other 23hrs 55min every day.

I am thinking some scheduled task (elsewhere on our environment) is acting like a DOS attack but would that cause that kind of error from the nrpe daemon?

Re: Nagios 4 upgrade from 3.5.0

These files worked fine in 3.5.0. Is this now a requirement of V4.0 ? I assumed that Service Description would be taken from the associated definition in the services.cfg file ? i.e. define service{ host_name xyz service_description FILESYSTEM ROOT check_command check_nrpe_viha!check_root use VIHASE...
