What guide are you following? @box293 wrote a pretty comprehensive NRPEv3 install guide for our knowledge base:

thanks that did the trick...


the guide i was following did not include 'make install-config" and "make install init"

[mcapra]

Awesome! Is it alright if we lock this thread and mark the issue as resolved?

[mistacoleman]
