NRPE - Nagios Remote Plugin Executor
Copyright (c) 1999-2008 Ethan Galstad ([email protected])
Version: 3.0.1
Last Modified: 09-08-2016
License: GPL v2 with exemptions (-l for more info)
SSL/TLS Available, OpenSSL 0.9.6 or higher required
TCP Wrappers Available

Usage: nrpe [-n] -c <config_file> [-4|-6] <mode>

Options:
 -n               = Do not use SSL
 -c <config_file> = Name of config file to use
 -4               = use ipv4 only
 -6               = use ipv6 only
 <mode>           = One of the following operating modes:
   -i             =    Run as a service under inetd or xinetd
   -d             =    Run as a standalone daemon
   -d -s          =    Run as a subsystem under AIX
   -f             =    Don't fork() for systemd, launchd, etc.

Notes:
This program is designed to process requests from the check_nrpe
plugin on the host(s) running Nagios.  It can run as a service
under inetd or xinetd (read the docs for info on this), or as a
standalone daemon. Once a request is received from an authorized
host, NRPE will execute the command/plugin (as defined in the
config file) and return the plugin output and return code to the
check_nrpe plugin.
