Cannot run external scripts from the console using nrpe:

here is my configuration file nsclient +=(X64) 0.4.3.143

the output i get now is unknown command when i am trying to run external commands using nrpe. please mark where my config file needs editing.

thanks for the feedback.

Can you try to change
to
and issue the following command in the Windows command prompt
Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks!

HI,

No that doesn't work either, the same configuration file settings is working with nsclient 0.3 version.

here is the updated version, i don't want all the clutter in the config, i just need NRPE module, check_nt, external scripts enabled and a section to add those scripts.

the sample nsclient.ini file doesn't include the external scripts powershell example as it did in 0.3 version.

Have you read this document over?
