NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
Re: NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
Hi,
All commands are failing.
the problem is that I configure all through GUI, so I think there is no problem with commands because done with VM nagios...
I configured :
SSH Server
MySQL Server
Load
CPU Stats
Apache Web Server
Nothing work.

Re: NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
As abrist mentioned, could you please post a service definition from nagios and one of the nrpe configurations, so that we may take a look. Also are you using nrpe purely from the command line as of now, and do you intend to use xinetd or just init systems?
Nagios-Plugins maintainer exclusively, unless you have other C language bugs with open-source nagios projects, then I am happy to help! Please pm or use other communication to alert me to issues as I no longer track the forum.

hi,
Ok so now different message...
On one of two server to monitor :
.
I just want to use NRPE Daemon from init system and not xinetd.
My nrpe.cfg file below on server to monitor :

# Sample NRPE Config File
# Written by: Ethan Galstad (nagios@nagios.org)

# Last Modified: 11-23-2007

# NOTES:
# This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon. It needs to be

# from which the check_nrpe client is being executed.
#############################################################################
# LOG FACILITY
# The syslog facility that should be used for logging purposes.
log_facility=daemon
# PID FILE
# The name of the file in which the NRPE daemon should write it's process ID
# number. The file is only written if the NRPE daemon is started by the root
# user and is running in standalone mode.
pid_file=/var/run/nrpe.pid
# PORT NUMBER
# Port number we should wait for connections on.
# NOTE: This must be a non-priviledged port (i.e. > 1024).

#server_address=127.0.0.1
# NRPE USER
# This determines the effective user that the NRPE daemon should run as.
# You can either supply a username or a UID.

# NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
nrpe_user=nagios
# NRPE GROUP
# This determines the effective group that the NRPE daemon should run as.

# ALLOWED HOST ADDRESSES
# This is an optional comma-delimited list of IP address or hostnames

# (i.e. 192.168.1.0/24) are also supported. Hostname wildcards are not currently
# supported.
#
# Note: The daemon only does rudimentary checking of the client's IP

allowed_hosts=192.168.0.30
# COMMAND ARGUMENT PROCESSING
# This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients

# BASH COMMAND SUBTITUTION
# This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients
# to specify arguments that contain bash command substitutions of the form
# $(...). This option only works if the daemon was configured with both
# the --enable-command-args and --enable-bash-command-substitution configure
# script options.

# COMMAND PREFIX
# This option allows you to prefix all commands with a user-defined string.
# A space is automatically added between the specified prefix string and the
# command line from the command definition.
#
# *** THIS EXAMPLE MAY POSE A POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK, SO USE WITH CAUTION! ***
# Usage scenario:
# Execute restricted commmands using sudo. For this to work, you need to add
# the nagios user to your /etc/sudoers. An example entry for alllowing
# execution of the plugins from might be:
#
# nagios ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/
#
# This lets the nagios user run all commands in that directory (and only them)
# without asking for a password. If you do this, make sure you don't give
# random users write access to that directory or its contents!
# command_prefix=/usr/bin/sudo
# DEBUGGING OPTION
# This option determines whether or not debugging messages are logged to the
# syslog facility.
# Values: 0=debugging off, 1=debugging on
debug=0
# COMMAND TIMEOUT
# This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will
# allow plugins to finish executing before killing them off.
command_timeout=60
# CONNECTION TIMEOUT
# This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will
# wait for a connection to be established before exiting. This is sometimes
# seen where a network problem stops the SSL being established even though
# all network sessions are connected. This causes the nrpe daemons to
# accumulate, eating system resources. Do not set this too low.
connection_timeout=300
# WEEK RANDOM SEED OPTION
# This directive allows you to use SSL even if your system does not have
# a /dev/random or /dev/urandom (on purpose or because the necessary patches
# were not applied). The random number generator will be seeded from a file
# which is either a file pointed to by the environment valiable $RANDFILE
# or $HOME/.rnd. If neither exists, the pseudo random number generator will
# be initialized and a warning will be issued.
# Values: 0=only seed from /dev/[u]random, 1=also seed from weak randomness
#allow_weak_random_seed=1
# INCLUDE CONFIG FILE
# This directive allows you to include definitions from an external config file.
#include=<somefile.cfg>
# INCLUDE CONFIG DIRECTORY
# This directive allows you to include definitions from config files (with a
# .cfg extension) in one or more directories (with recursion).
#include_dir=<somedirectory>
#include_dir=<someotherdirectory>
# COMMAND DEFINITIONS
# Command definitions that this daemon will run. Definitions
# are in the following format:
#
# command[<command_name>]=<command_line>
#
# When the daemon receives a request to return the results of <command_name>
# it will execute the command specified by the <command_line> argument.
#
# Unlike Nagios, the command line cannot contain macros - it must be
# typed exactly as it should be executed.
#
# Note: Any plugins that are used in the command lines must reside
# on the machine that this daemon is running on! The examples below
# assume that you have plugins installed in a /usr/local/nagios/libexec
# directory. Also note that you will have to modify the definitions below
# to match the argument format the plugins expect. Remember, these are
# examples only!
# The following examples use hardcoded command arguments...
command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10
command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 15,10,5 -c 30,25,20
command[check_hda1]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /dev/hda1
command[check_zombie_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 5 -c 10 -s Z
command[check_total_procs]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c 200
# The following examples allow user-supplied arguments and can
# only be used if the NRPE daemon was compiled with support for
# command arguments *AND* the dont_blame_nrpe directive in this
# config file is set to '1'. This poses a potential security risk, so
# make sure you read the SECURITY file before doing this.
#command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
#command[check_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$

Change this line:
to this:
Restart nrpe, and try your check again.
Code: Select all
#server_address=127.0.0.1
Code: Select all
server_address=127.0.0.1
Code: Select all
./check_nrpe -H localhost

Re: NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
I dit this test and I have same error message.
Re: NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
Can you run the following commands on the remote machine (client) and show us the output?
Code: Select all
ps axuw | grep [n]rpe
netstat -at | grep nrpe
ps axuw | grep nrpe

Re: NRPE - Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
Did you ever get a resolution to this problem.
I have this exact same problem on one system. I'm not certain why it refuses to handshake correctly. I set the debug to 1 and I see that check_nrpe command is successfully connected and the host is allowed but the SSL handshake is failing:
Aug 10 09:54:52 485935 nrpe[2994]: Connection from ***.***.***.50 port 37672
Aug 10 09:54:52 485935 nrpe[2994]: Host address is in allowed_hosts

Aug 10 09:54:52 485935 nrpe[2994]: Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
Aug 10 09:54:52 485935 nrpe[2994]: Connection from ▒=x| closed.
I have turned off the firewall entirely, I have checked my npre.cfg , and rechecked it to make sure the allowed hosts is set right. I compiled nrpe with SSL, no errors. Other system are using the exact same nrpe binary file with no issues. I just don't understand why it won't complete the SSL handshake. Is there a more verbose debugging mode for this?

jbowen73,
Just to verify - is your Remote Host capable of contacting itself?
Are you using the xinetd super-daemon, or are you running NRPE as a daemon?
If you're using the xinetd super-daemon, you will need to add your allowed-hosts within that file.
