Nagios Support Forum

Let's check if the "check_procs" plugin works correctly when run locally. Run the following command on the remote box, and show the output:
It seems like, the Linux agent was not installed via our script, and the NRPE is not running under xinetd but as a standalone daemon. Try stopping xinetd on the remote box:
Also, restart NRPE on the remove machine.

Next, try your check from the Nagios XI box: It this still doesn't work, post the nrpe.cfg and common.cfg files.

hi,

if we run the following commands, other than NRPE and Nagios plugins does any other system files get affected

delgroup nagios
deluser nagios
rm -f /etc/xinet.d/nrpe
service xinetd restart
rm -rf /usr/local/nagios

I don't believe so, but I wouldn't advise doing so. What exactly are you looking to accomplish? If you have a new question, please create a new thread.

It this still doesn't work, post the nrpe.cfg and common.cfg files.

Can you please post both of these files, if what Ludmil posted didn't work?

Hi,

We need a confirmation that the following commands would not affect any other system files and other plugins

delgroup nagios
deluser nagios
rm -f /etc/xinet.d/nrpe
service xinetd restart
rm -rf /usr/local/nagios

After the confirmation from Nagios support we want to go ahead with the Nagios reinstallation again

Thanks,
