Unfortunately no follow up on this post. I've got the same problem after updating a macOS server to Sierra. However, I also have a working macOS Sierra server. So it seems some local issue. Nagios is saying:
I'm trying to troubleshoot by running the check_nrpe command manually from the Nagios server and I'm getting:
However, I'm getting the same error when I use the IP address of any working macOS server. So I'm not running the command the same way Nagios does. Where can I find the exact command that's ran by Nagios? I've checked the nagios.log but this is only displaying server alerts and server events.
I've also checked to see if NRPE is running on the mac server, but I couldn't find any processes with that name. But again, I could also not find it on any other Mac servers which work just fine. Is this a constantly running process or is this only running when triggered by the Nagios server?
I do have an old version of Nagios (Nagios Core 3.4.3).
Hope you can help.
