I just realized the NRPE package on that box is from rpmforge...I got rid of that repo config and installed the latest NRPE from EPEL. Now everything is working.

Hi, My allowed_host config looks like this: allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,nagios01.prd.iad1.nyt.net,nagios02.prd.iad1.nyt.net When I start nrpe I got the following errors: Jun 4 18:11:41 ip-10-212-12-236 nrpe[16522]: Invalid IPv6 address in ACL: nagios01.prd.iad1.nyt.net Jun 4 18:11:41 ip-10-212-12-236 nr...

Hi, I have the following nrpe acess config on my new Nagios XI server: allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,localhost However the nrpe standalone daemon is giving me the following errors: Jun 4 17:50:04 ip-10-212-51-228 nrpe[25613]: Host 127.0.1.1 is not allowed to talk to us! Jun 4 17:50:19 ip-10-212-51-228 nrp...

I did run some more tests over the weekend, and the results were also not consistent. Thanks a lot for looking into this!

Hi, I encountered this strange behavior a few times when I tried to remove a host using the nagiosql command: First I "deleted" the services associated with the host using nagiosql_delete_service.php with the --config flag, the script output told me "14 services deleted successfully!&...

Yep, that resolved the issue. Not sure why those files were owned by root in the first place..

Thanks a lot!

Hi, I have a local script on our Nagios XI server to delete decommissioned services/hosts automatically. The script calls /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/nagiosql_delete_service.php and /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/nagiosql_delete_host.php. It works well when I run it as root, however it gives me the fol...

I think I found the issue. My checkcommand for that service was defined as: $USER1$/check_nrpe -n -t 30 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_health_oracle -a '$ARG1$ $ARG2$ $ARG3$ $ARG4$ $ARG5$ $ARG6$ $ARG7$ $ARG8$' And after I replaced the space with "!" everything started working. $USER1$/check_nrp...

I did use one slash, Nagios XI replaced it with two...

And is there a solution other than define a $USERn$? That sounds even less convenient than defining things in the nrpe client config.

Hi, I was trying to set up a service to monitor our Oracle ASM diskgroup usage, and one of the arguments I use in the service check contains a plus sign (+). Here is my service check: [root@nagios01 scripts]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -n -t 30 -H foo.bar.com -c check_health_oracle -a '-t!...
