Failed to find plugin: check_ping in C:\Program Files\NSClie

hi all

i have a nagios core 4.4.3 with NRPE configured and working well.
i have some site with on-site win10 agents and i wanted to use them as NRPE agents.
ive installed NSClient++ (05.2.35).
at first, I hade some SSL issues but that solved.
now im trying to apply some check_ping services but it won't work.
it seems that the NRPS win agent looking for check_ping dll under modules folder, but its not their.
i can see a check_ping_bat under scripts folder and ive tried using the bellow syntax, but still the same issue.so for now these commands are marked out in the configuration.

Code: Select all

; Undocumented key
;check_ping = enabled

[/settings/external scripts/scripts]
check_ping = cmd /c echo scripts\check_ping.bat; exit($LastExitCode) | powershell.exe -command -
on my Nagios server, I see this error:

Code: Select all

(No output on stdout) stderr: connect to address 192.168.1.10 port 5666: Connection refused
but I think that the root cause is the check_ping plugin issue.

I've attached config file of my agent, NRPE commands of the Nagios side, and the logs from the agent side.

hope someone could help with this.
ill appreciate ant idea, comment, or advice.

thanks

the issue was with ssl version.
the client is using sslv3 but my nrpe server uses TSLv1
