Nagios Support Forum

For what it's worth, NLS would run on a separate box and syslog could send data to it. But that's just a suggestion.

I'm sure it is. In the mean time I need to get these checks working in nagios xi.

What happens when you execute this on the remote host as the nagios user: And what happens when you execute this on the Nagios host as the nagios user:

As the Nagios user on the remote server when I execute

From the Nagios Server as requested
2)

From the Nagios Server using nrpe as configured on remote host (note the output is different since the seek file already found the 52 lines prior to this check)
3)
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <REMOTEHOST> -c check_log3_kpi_completion
OK: Found 0 lines (limit=1/1): No matches found.|lines=0

To cover all bases, did you change "<REMOTEHOST>" to be the actual IP/hostname of the remote server?

Of course.

Sorry, just have to ask. Sometimes people just copy/paste without reading first.

What happens with this as nagios user on the Nagios server:

Additionally, please run the command @eloyd posted, as well as this one - Can you also post your client NRPE configuration for us to look at?
