I'll see if I can find some documentation on the NRPE package. I know that HPUX has some special requirements when you compile it, otherwise it fails to work unless you use the --no-ssl option.

I can't exclude ssl, it's a security requirement.

We tried to exclude ssl protocol at start. The problem is that even with the connection test positive, the data streaming can't reach the Nagios server machine.

The NRPE has been compiled. If you can be so kind to supply indications about NRPE installation by compiling it, I would greatly appreciate.

There is any indication how to configurate Nagios monitoring through SNMP?

regarding SNMP:

For unix or linux monitoring, you can use net-snmp. We have documentation here:

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... g_SNMP.pdf

if your using a unix system, you'll probably also need to compile net-snmp from source:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/net-snm ... /net-snmp/

This was the way I compiled NRPE on HPUX, and it seemed to solve the SSL issue as well as work rather well.
