Re: CHECK_NRPE: (ssl_err != 5) Error - Could not complete SS
Hi @nagiosuser1000,
We have a guide for troubleshooting this error. You will want to check to make sure the NRPE is running, the configuration file is correct and SSL was enabled at compile time.

Re: CHECK_NRPE: (ssl_err != 5) Error - Could not complete SS
Hi,
Are you able to communicate from the Nagios XI server to the remote host? For example, run the following test command from the terminal:
It should output which version of NRPE is running. Let me know the results.
Next, if you go to Admin > System Information > System Status. Are all the system components running (green)? Please see attached image. If one of the components is not running, re-start Nagios.
If the issue is not resolved, please PM your system profile for us to review
To send us your system profile.
Login to the Nagios XI GUI using a web browser.
Click the "Admin" > "System Profile" Menu
Click the "Download Profile" button
Save the profile.zip file and share in a private message or upload it to the post/ticket.

Re: CHECK_NRPE: (ssl_err != 5) Error - Could not complete SS
Verify that the nrpe service is up on the other device by running "netstat -nap | grep 5666" If you don't see this port listening then the program isn't running and you should try to restart it. If it is using xinetd then use "service xinetd restart" or use service nrpe restart". Please provide the nrpe.cfg and /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe if it still doesn't work after this.

Also, looking in the apache log, I believe the ssl certificate is incorrectly installed on this server.
