How did you install NRPE? What guide/tutorial/doc did you follow?
Is it possible that NRPE is already running under xinetd, and you are trying to start it as a "standalone" daemon?
What is the output of the following commands?
Code: Select all
uname -a
cat /etc/*release
ls -la /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe
ps -ef | grep 'xinetd\|nrpe' | grep -v grep
netstat -an | grep 5666
Can you show us the
nrpe.cfg file?

Please note, that if your original issue is solved. I would like to ask if you could create a new thread on using NSClient with NRPE on a windows client.
That way we aren't mixing a different topic under an issue with NRPE. As your new question would be for configuring the NRPE listener on an NSClient agent that is installed on windows.
Other than that, we would still be glad to help you on this next issue if you created a new one.
Are we okay to lock up this thread?
