Hi guys,
I recently started using Nagios Core 4.2 with NRPE 2.15 and was facing this issue where output was getting truncated to 1kb. I tried the patch online to increase the limit from 1024 bytes and recompiled source but it didnt work.
THen i updated to NRPE but it still gives 1KB limit. Dont know where I am doing wrong. Are the 2 versions getting conflicted and didnt get get overwritten after the upgrade?
How did you resolve the limitation, upgrade and recompilation steps?
I have posted the same on Stackoverflow - Please find more details here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/452 ... 1024-bytes

From:Until you update the check_nrpe plugin you will not be able to take advantage of the larger v3 packet size.

Did you also update check_nrpe on the Nagios Core side of things after you updated the remote machine's NRPE? Because if check_nrpe is still on the 2.x version, that might be one cause.

That is correct, to be able to use the larger payload size, the NRPE Agent and the check_nrpe command would have to be running version 3.x.x.

For days I am looking online for v3 of Nagios-NRPE plugin ( check_nrpe plugin as its called) but I am not able to find the new version.
On official site and on their github, Nagios Plugins 2.2.1 is the latest one.
Can you please let me know where to find v3?
