NRPE giving me ssl error
Posted: Thu Dec 17, 2015 5:16 pm
When I install NRPE on CentOS on my Nagios server and do the first test:
./check_nrpe -H localhost
I get a ssl error. When I do:
./check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
or use the machines IP it returns the NRPE version. All the examples out there say to test using "localhost". Why doesn't this work? I know 127.0.0.1 and IP of Nagios is in the config as allowed and in the hosts file localhost is pointed to 127.0.0.1
Thoughts?
Thanks.
