I have install nrpe on the XI server and try to create the service monitoring but I got the error on the result see below.

CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not connect to x.x.x: Connection reset by peer

I have allowed an IP, localhost but not working. how can I fix them?

Thank you.

Hi @dimsum,

How did you install NRPE on the host? Did you use our install script ( see Installing The Linux NRPE Agent) ?

This is common error that is usually caused by not adding the XI server IP address to the nrpe.cfg file. Did you re-start xinetd after making the changes to the nrpe configuration file?

Another common cause is that SSL was not compiled in NRPE.

After I rebooting XI. check nrpe it worked.

Thank you.
