nrpe - 3.2.1 service file issues

[jenglish]

@lmitchev

I have stopped troubleshooting this error. I was following up with interactions from bugzilla.redhat ...

The problem is that the nrpe.cfg has the correct settings but is not going to be seen on any system with an updated config. I have made and put -8 today which should show up in epel-testing. Please test this and let me know.

It seems that this is specific to Fedora EPEL.

Problem is one that should have been caught earlier and the package never been pushed to stable. This is on me.

The /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg does not define the pid_file. It is left undefined and also points to the wrong place of /var/run/nrpe.pid

The systemd startup however needs the pid_file so that it can properly restart (and fix some other outstanding bugs). It wants it to be in /var/run/nrpe/nrpe.pid

The fix will be define the correct entry in /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg and restart nrpe. I will work on a fixed package and get it out as soon as possible.

Please lock the thread. Thank you so much for your help! We will wait for the 3.2.1-8 nrpe package to be pushed to main Fedora EPEL repo to further update our nrpe agents.

Sure. I am closing the topic.
