NPRE agent help needed

[costanza2k1]

Hi all,

I have a server in the DMZ with no access to YUM. I need to install an NRPE agent to monitor it. I SCP'd the NRPE agent to the server but the install fails since I don't access to the net. Any suggestions? Here is the error in the install log:

I believe the answer I'm looking for is here:

I'll post my results back

so the offline agent install failed, I looked at the install.log and it looks like I don't have these packages installed...is this true?

Code: Select all

checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl.exe... no

PM'ed the method that will be required here unless you build those packages.
