bin folder missing from /usr/local/nagios

Hi,
It very starnge but if i will run check_nrpe to mu nagios server (10.146.1.100) it will work

root@ssbpmutu:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_nrpe -H 10.146.1.100
NRPE v2.15

but if i will run to 127.0.0.1 it woul not. why? what is the difference?


root@ssbpmutu:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

You probably have not allowed 127.0.0.1 in your 'allowed_hosts' part. The difference is 10.146.1.100 has sspmutu's IP in it's allowed_hosts.

127.0.0.1 is allowed in my nrpe.cfg it ssbpmutu server.

so this is not the issue, any other idea?

please see the evidnce:
/usr/local/nagios/etc
vi nrpe.cfg
allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,10.146.1.100,10.146.1.35

Login to you Solaris server and run the following.

Code: Select all

 ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -n

If it returns the version of the NRPE Agent, that means that the NRPE agent did not get compiled with SSL enabled.
Try recompiling it again by following these instructions.

Instead of taking the time to figure out why the old NRPE Agent didn't install on the Solaris server, try using the instructions below to install a newer version of the NRPE agent.

Hi,

i followed this procedure all the steps were done successfuly.

but when running check_nrpe got the following error:

root@ssbpmutu:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not connect to 127.0.0.1. Check system logs on 127.0.0.1

output from /var/adm/messages/:

It looks like the the SSL libraries are not installed on your server or that they did not get compiled in to the NRPE Agent.
Make sure that the SSL libraries are installed on your server and then run these commands to see if you can get SSL compiled in to the NRPE Agent and the check_nrpe command.

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/nrpe-3.0/
./configure --enable-command-args –with-ssl=/usr/sfw/ –with-ssl-lib=/usr/sfw/lib/ –with-ssl-inc=/usr/sfw/include
gmake all

If it compiles without any errors, run this to install the agent

Code: Select all

gmake install-init

Then run this to restart the agent on the server

Code: Select all

svcadm disable nrpe
svcadm enable nrpe

Agian not working

[tgriep]

Try running this command on the Solaris server to see if it works.

Code: Select all

 ./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -n

What the -n does is to connect to the NRPE agent without SSL and if it works, then the agent did not get ssl compiled in to it and you will have to use the -n option in the check_nrpe command in the checks for that server.
