Nagios Support Forum

Hi,,

I am a new user to Nagios. I have installed Nagios server and its working fine, while adding host with nrpe addon getting connection refused error msg, I allowed port 5666 in the firewall too. I used xinetd method and added my server ip in the only_from option.


please let me know where I was wrong,,


thanks

Hi,
This error comes only when xinetd is not running properly.
First install xinetd rpm package and run following command
sudo /sbin/services xinetd start
now you will not get connection refuse error.
