Do you have a similar version for Ubuntu?

Re: nrpe installation fails
We do not have a scripted install for ubuntu like we do for rhel. However you can install from source or via package\ppa without issue!

Re: nrpe installation fails
Not necessarily, as our defualt agent installer only support the rhel derivatives. There is a ppa for ubuntu, but it is a little dated:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-nrpe
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-nrpe

Re: nrpe installation fails
OK, so I created a new clone of my production server that I want to monitor, and followed the agent installation process, which worked fine, no errors.
All I needed to do in addition to the automatic process was to add entries for 127.0.0.1 and localhost to the "only_from" field in the /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe file.
Now I can successfully run "./usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost":
[root@server libexec]# ./check_nrpe -H localhost
NRPE v2.14
You guys rock, as per usual!
I'll try the PPA for my Ubuntu installs and see what happens... : )
Thanks again!!
