Need plugin information

He means for you to post your NSC.ini but to obfuscate any information you might deem sensitive.

ravish78,

uncomment NRPEListener.dll

NSClientListener.dll
FileLogger.dll
CheckSystem.dll
CheckDisk.dll

also enable ssl under the [nrpe] section

Code: Select all

 use_ssl=1 

next restart service and see if nrpe can connect

Code: Select all

 ./check_nrpe -H 13.129.109.69 

-Yancy

Done below steps as suggested.

Executed below commands on nagios server.

I just want to verify you are using a "NSC.INI" file and not trying to use a "NSC.TXT" file.

[CGraham]

I did a diff of your ini file to mine. Here's the differences.

NSClientListener.dll <-- this needs to be uncommented

[NSClient]
;# ALLOWED HOST ADDRESSES
; This is a comma-delimited list of IP address of hosts that are allowed to talk to NSClient deamon.
; If you leave this blank the global version will be used instead.
allowed_hosts=13.129.109.69
;
;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
; This is the port the NSClientListener.dll will listen to.
port=5666 <---- This should be 12489

I think the issue is you have NSClient and NRPE trying to listen on the same port. Uncomment NSClientListener.dll, change the NSClient port to 12489, restart the service and try again.

To CGraham:

;# NSCLIENT PORT NUMBER
; This is the port the NSClientListener.dll will listen to.
port=5666 <---- This should be 12489

Nice catch!

To ravish78:

Let us know if CGraham's suggestion fixed your issue.

[CGraham]

I've verified this on one of my servers. They bind in order, NSClient (check_nt agent) then the NRPE (check_nrpe agent). So your NRPE won't bind if you set them both to the same port.

Eureka! Let us know if changing the port number for nsclient resolves your issues.
