Nagios Support Forum

Thank you both very much and thank you Scott Wilkerson for the break down. I have did as you both mentioned: For the Remote Client after making the changes the restart output is: [root@mydsccas xinetd.d]# service xinetd restart Stopping xinetd: [ OK ] Starting xinetd: [ OK ] For the Nagios XI server...

For the remote client: [cas@mydsccas ~]$ grep "only_from" /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe only_from = 168.25.19.112 [root@mydsccas ~]# service xinetd restart Stopping xinetd: [ OK ] Starting xinetd: [ OK ] On the Nagios XI Server: [root@istation ~]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:02:...

So sorry for the late response. Thank you for writing 'lmiltchev'. Can you elaborate on this? What happens when you click on the "Schedule an immediate check" quick actions button? A pop-up box appears that shows the command went through successfully and then it disappears. What is the che...

Thank you!

Sorry for that mix up. Here's the results of the new command: [root@istation ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 10.4.10.110 CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. I followed the instructions on Nagios for installing the client agent on the server to be monitored to the letter...

So I tried the commands again with the other IP address and got the following. 1st command: [root@istation ~]# /usr/local/nagios...

Thank you for clarifying. On the first command: [root@istation ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 168.25.19.110 -n CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 seconds. On the second command: [root@istation ~]# nmap 168.25.19.110 -p 5666 Starting Nmap 5.51 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-04-25 14:54 UTC...

Output:
