thanks you!!! thanks you!!!thanks you!!!thanks you!!!
No problem!

Code: Select all

    [root@localhost ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -n
    CHECK_NRPE: Error receiving data from daemon.
This error is expected if SSL is working appropriately. Does the normal command work (without the -n flag)?

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1

I'm also interested in the running processes:

Code: Select all

ps -ef | egrep "nrpe|xinetd"
Lastly, I'd like to see your whole nrpe.cfg file:

Code: Select all

cat /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
Can you please post the output of these two commands?
