Hi,

I have the following nrpe acess config on my new Nagios XI server:

allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,localhost

However the nrpe standalone daemon is giving me the following errors:

Jun 4 17:50:04 ip-10-212-51-228 nrpe[25613]: Host 127.0.1.1 is not allowed to talk to us!

Jun 4 17:51:19 ip-10-212-51-228 nrpe[26081]: Host 127.0.1.1 is not allowed to talk to us!

Why is it using 127.0.1.1, and what am I missing?

Thanks!

I just realized the NRPE package on that box is from rpmforge...I got rid of that repo config and installed the latest NRPE from EPEL. Now everything is working.
