Does NRPE run on the server you want to monitor.

Code: Select all

ps -ef | grep xinetd

Could you check with netstat if a process listens on port 5666 on the server you want to monitor?
Show the output of:

Code: Select all

netstat -tulpn | grep 5666

Can you telnet to port 5666 from the nagios server to the server you want to monitor?

Code: Select all

telnet <IP address server> 5666

Is iptables (or other firewall) opened?
