service nrpe start
nrpe: unrecognized service

iptables -I INPUT -s 10.54.24.99 -p tcp --dport 5666 -j ACCEPT

it's a CentOS

Ok, managed to make it work again. Still have some issue executing remote check_jmx from Nagios, But i'm out of time for the moment, so I'll have to put this on hold for now. i'll let you know how it goes later.
