nrpe debug shows #012 or #020#036qk#177

Post by zarko »

Hi, it's red hat or OL version 6.8 running NRPE 2.15

The NRPE debug is enabled and I am tailing a log, and I see lines like

nrpe[22266]: Connection from #020#036qk▒#177 closed.

Q1
How to understand #020...? On other "normal" hosts it's just blank, the example is:

nrpe[22612]: Connection from closed.

Q2:
I troubleshoot why one of my check_nrpe exits with 1, even command seems to complete successfully. The command creates a temp file, and nrpe log reads that temp file has #012 where blank space is to be.

Appreciate any ideas to understand why is this ?

thx. Zarko

In all my years, I've never seen this. Does this server have special language settings?

Does your terminal client?
