As far as I can tell xinetd is not installed or running. There is no /etc/ config for it and I do not see it when I ps aux | grep xine

Can you upload the log file that should be in the folder that you compiled NRPE in?
Maybe it didn't compile so that is why it may not be running.

what about `ps aux | grep nrpe`? I suspect it has to be running otherwise your errors would look a bit different. I wonder what the exact command being run is though - namely I wonder if it's loading the right config file.
The next step if that looks right is to spin up debugging in the nrpe.cfg:
Code: Select all
# DEBUGGING OPTION
# This option determines whether or not debugging messages are logged to the
# syslog facility.
# Values: 0=debugging off, 1=debugging on
debug=1
And then of course restart the daemon... then see what comes of it

Yeah I see the process when I ps aux grep for it. Will restart the daemon in debugging and see what it finds. Although I was having trouble starting and stoping the daemon we'll see if i I have it this time.

Okay I put it into debugging mode and restarted the daemon. Is there a log file I should give you guys from somewhere now after putting it in debug mode?

Looks like the debug data will be sent to the system log. Try this:

But:
in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,140.225.8.240
8.240 is indeed our nagios server.
What other config file would it be reading from and where would I find it? I don't think it is xinetd because as far as I can tell it is not running. There is no /etc/ config for it and I do not see it when I ps aux | grep xine

Try removing localhost from the equation and permitting just the Nagios Server IP address. Maybe there's a bug with the comma delimitation?

I don't think running:
will actually stop the nrpe process.
Try running the following commands:
Code: Select all
killall nrpe
launchctl start org.nagios.nrpe
then schedule a forced immediate check from XI to test it.
