Alternate NRPE Agent Install

[emperaza]

Hello folks,

I need an alternate way to install the NRPE agent as many of our systems are behind a firewall without the outside communication required to download all the packages from the third-party mirrors. We already have and RHN Satellite server that we use for patches and updates, would it be possible to obtain a complete list of all the required packages in order to build our own repository. I could then run the install script without the yum piece, no?

Maybe there is a better way to do this... Any suggestions?

Thanks,

[mguthrie]

If you grab our prepackaged tarball, you can extract it and look through the install scripts. They're ordered:
0-yum
1-prereqs
2-usergroups ....etc

That should outline all of the steps needed for the NRPE installation.
