It's running under xinetd. I've restarted the service and the whole VM several times. Just rebooted again before running ps -ef|grep nrpe. Result:
root 1956 1903 0 13:15 pts/0 00:00:00 grep nrpe

Also tried:
# service xinetd status
xinetd (pid 2094) is running...

I tried ./check_nrpe -H <FREEPBXIP> -n from the Nagios box again and this is the error I'm seeing in /var/log/messages on the FreePBX box when that runs:

xinetd[2094]: START: nrpe pid=2539 from=::ffff:<NAGIOSBOXIP>
nrpe[2539]: Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
xinetd[2094]: EXIT: nrpe status=0 pid=2539 duration=0(sec)

The FreePBX box is just a test system I have set up to try and get NRPE working. Should I reimage and just try the install again from scratch?

Can you please post your cat /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe file for us to review?

Let's check the NRPE log out, can you run this command and post the output?

Code: Select all

grep 'nrpe' /var/log/messages

Is SELinux running?

Code: Select all

sestatus
Check library dependencies of your NRPE binary:

Code: Select all

ldd <path to NRPE binary>
Example:

Code: Select all

ldd /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe
Is the nagios user generated and not-expired?

Code: Select all

grep nagios /etc/passwd
chage -l nagios

In addition to jolson's post, please try this:

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /usr/local/nagios/etc
cp /tmp/nrpe-2.15/sample-config/nrpe.cfg /usr/local/nagios/etc
chown -R nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/etc/
service xinetd restart

ssax, I had already created the /user/local/nagios/etc directory and moved the sample config over. I hadn't changed the ownership though, which I did and restarted xinetd and it seems to be giving me the same result.

What happens if you comment out the "only_from" line in the "/etc/xinetd.d/nrpe" file, and restart xinetd?

Code: Select all

service xinetd restart
Does your check work then? You may also try running:

Code: Select all

service fail2ban stop
service iptables stop
service ip6tables stop
Test the check from Nagios XI:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <remote ip>
If it fails again, run the following command on the remote (FreePBX) box, and post the output in code wraps:

Code: Select all

tail -100 /var/log/messages
I tested this yesterday, and it seemed to work for me. See below:
