Since I installed a ssl certificate (ssh-keygen) on my host I keep getting:

CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

every time I make a request

HOST:

Code: Select all

openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.1 14 Mar 2012

nrpe.cfg

Code: Select all

server_address=127.0.0.1 X_X_X_X  (the second IP is the server)
 
 allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1 X_X_X_X

NAGIOS SERVER:

Code: Select all

openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 01 Jul 2008

I need some help, I'm stucked in this point...

Thanks

First thing, not that it is the definite issue, I would highly suggest updating nagios openssl version, .98 and 1.0.1 have many things intentionally not backwards compatible. Secondly, did you install nrpe from source or use a packaged build? If from source, did you build with ssl?
