I am having a problem with the Solaris 10 NRPE agent, with an install on an older build of Solaris 10. I am using the NRPE agent.
It complains that there is no

It looks like I have a newer version of the file, but cannot get NRPE to start:

Code: Select all

svcs | grep nrpe
maintenance    13:32:39 svc:/application/nagios/nrpe:default
bash-3.00# svcadm enable /application/nagios/nrpe
bash-3.00# svcs | grep nrpe
maintenance    13:32:39 svc:/application/nagios/nrpe:default

Please help!

You may want to remove the install and try following the instructions at this link.

Compiling from source seems to work better for most people.

If you run this command on the Solaris server, it should tell you the status of that service and the error or log file you have to look at to see why the service isn't starting.

Code: Select all

svcs -l svc:/application/nagios/nrpe:default
