Is 192.168.0.93 the correct IP address of your nagios server? Have you restarted xinetd after modifying the nrpe file, so that the changes can take effect? have you tried stopping the iptables temporarily just in case, and running your check again?

Are you using TCP wrappers? Do you have host.allow or host.deny configured on this system? Run the following commands on the remote box, and show the output:
Code: Select all
ip a
uname -a
cat /etc/*release
netstat -anp | grep 5666
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -V
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
Also, upload the nrpe.cfg file on the forum. Thank you!

@pohlin, I looked at your nrpe.cfg config file and the line:
Doesn't have the entry for the Nagios server. Please change it to:
Code: Select all
allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,192.168.0.93
Exit out of the file and restart nrpe with:
Then, from the nagios server run the following command:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.0.137
