Nagios Support Forum

Hi,
i have CentOS release 5.9 (Final), i installed nrpe which is indicated on https://darktraining.com/linux/30/ site.
But i encountered a problem.service daemon doesn't work.i defined/etc/services(nrpe 5666/tcp # NRPE)
while installing nrpe,i also have "make xxx" commands issue


[root@ulas_linux_test ~]# service nrpe start
Starting Nagios NRPE daemon (nrpe):
[root@ulas_linux_test ~]#


at nagios server side
root@dosya:~# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.169.71
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.
You have new mail in /var/mail/root
root@dosya:~# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -n -H 192.168.169.71 -p 5666
CHECK_NRPE: Error receiving data from daemon.
root@dosya:~#

any support will appreciated

By default nrpe logs errors to /var/log/messages
and look for useful errors. If you don't find any set debug=1 in nrpe.cfg and reload nrpe (if running as a daemon) then try again.

Thanks for your response,
i back to snapshot ,so my configuration went.
i try installing same way but i can't installing nrpe to my CENTOS machine.
