2/ type the command : apt-get install nagios-plugins (DONE)
3/ edit the following file : /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg by changing the : allowed-host=127.0.0.1 by the @IP of nagios server (DONE)

4/ The problem : check if the following FIle Exists >>> check_nrpe ..... (I suppose to find it in /usr/lib/nagios/plugins or usr/local/nagios/libexec )

Any suggestions plz

Try doing:

Code: Select all

dpkg -L nagios-nrpe-server

Should give you the path of where check_nrpe was put.

Okeey ! I'll try it right now

[slimix00]

It gives me the location of nrpe.cfg not check_nrpe

When you unzipped and configured NRPE did you make sure to do so outside of the original download directory?

[slimix00]

YEss ! I Did

[nscott]

Then check to see if

Code: Select all

dpkg -L nagios-plugins

Does this yield the same directories that you've already checked for check_nrpe?

[slimix00]

YES !! the same

Well I'm trying another tutorial !

thank youuuuu anyway ^^
