NRPE monitoring of a debian 6 box

[intera91]

I have installed debian 6 on an old box which was running an old version of Lenny.

Installed the server packages and am surprised that the /etc/nagios.nrpe.cfg is defining a check_init_service command on which the monitoring station depends to check a few things as this script is nowhere to be found. would appreciate it if someone could copy/paste that script in here!!!!

I believe you should have this in "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins". Here it is:

# Description:      Checks the status of system services normally started by the init process for appropriate runlevel.
#                     For instance, this would be used to see whether Apache or SSH was running, based on internal
#                     service information (as opposed to probing the expected ports).  This relies on the init script
#                     providing the 'status' command.

# Revision history is kept in Subversion at https://devhub.nagios.com/svn/plugins
#
# Usage: ./check_init_service servicename
#        e.g. ./check_init_service httpd
