I think I downloaded the following from http://www.perzl.org/aix/

I'm not sure if this will help you, but I thought I'd share... here are the nrpe and plugin binaries for AIX 5.3 that I had to track down around 2 years ago. May work on other AIX versions. Could be worth a try
I realize you're trying to compile them on your own and may have other reasons/requirements for doing so... but regardless;

Raj, unless you have a requirement to compile, you may wish to try some of the bins floating around. There are many plugins users running aix, and I have yet to once fail on the mathlibs.

Correct. I changed the check_disk.c to get rid of the default display.
Original : free space: / 11335 MB (55% inode=99%)
Revised : /apps >Total:295GB Used:37GB(13%) Free:255GB(87%)

Another reason is I want to standardise on the versions used, nrpe 2.15 and plugins > 2.0

I still cannot get hold of bos.adt.libm. Anyone can assist on this, it will be appreciated.

Unfortunately I do have a requirement to compile as per the post above.

Aside from gcc being newer, is there a particular reason you are not using the ibm provided packages? We know they should work and have worked for people in the past. While newer versions are great, we cannot guarantee that the freeware package will have the same functionality.

It did not work, that is why I installed the freeware version.

Unfortunately there doesn't look to be much of an option. Yeah, the pre-compiled binaries for AIX that I found are quite a bit older than version 2.0.0, though they are not the newest, they do work...

To solve the compilation issues use the latest nagios-plugins-2.0.3.tar.gz.

Please close the thread.
