[Nagios-devel] NRPE and NMAP problems?

Hi,

Can't seem to find anyone else with this problem, so hopefully this is the =
right place to ask.

I am using NRPE 2.12 on many systems. We have an NMAP scan that happens dai=
ly. In the logs for our systems we get the following during the nmap scan:

Aug 12 14:02:33 myserver nrpe[12265]: Error: Network server getpeername() f=
ailure (107: Transport endpoint is not connected)
Aug 12 14:02:33 myserver nrpe[12265]: Daemon shutdown

I can recreate the error by running: nmap -sT -p 5666 localhost

The funny thing is that nrpe doesn't actually shutdown, but it does remove =
the pid file. So any restart scripts that rely on the pid file, now fail.

Could I be doing something wrong or is this a bug? I can repeat this on Lin=
ux, Solaris, and AIX with NRPE 2.12.

Thanks,

Mark
