I seem to be having trouble compiling the official Nagios plugins on a Mac Mini. The device in question is running macOS Sierra, and I've installed all of the requisite GNU software as specified in the instructions on Github.
However, when I go to "make" the software, it complains of there being "too many errors" and exits. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Trouble compiling official plugins on macOS
What instructions are you using? Our KB suggests using the plugins offered by https://www.macports.org/install.php (https://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=n ... str=nagios)
The error is likely due to no openssl, so if you don't want to use macports, you'll need to install openssl. The macports version will install openssl as a dependency, and I must say I am impressed with how well they keep up.
We have a bug report about the openssl issue in NRPE, so our plugins will likely be fixed when NRPE is fixed. Unfortunately, I can't give you a time frame on that right now.
Please let us know if you run into any issues or have any additional questions.
