[Nagiosplug-help] NRPE Help Required.

[Conzen, Christoph (C.)]

...the server address is only important in case you want to have influence on the binding when you have multiple interfaces available.
 
Have a look at the allowed_hosts parameter a little further down the config file. Put yout 10.0.0.2 in here and you should be allowed to interrgate the client.
 
hope this helps,
Christoph

well guys that problem is solved now. I have another issue with NRPE. 
 
the computer which I need to monitor is running NRPE with IP 10.0.0.3. The server being 10.0.0.2.
 
on the client/remote computer side I have put the server address as 10.0.0.2, the port is 5666, the dont blame nrpe option is set to 1, and host allowed has the entry of the servers address in the nrpe.cfg file. Still when I try to monitor I get connection not allowed.
 
Any probable reasons for that, if permisible I can attach the nrpe.cfg file and the entries in my localhost.cfg, and commands.cfg file. Looking forward for urgent replies.
 
Cheers!!

	The platform is RHEL AS4 Update4. The Nagios directory is /usr/local/nagios. I will be building from the source. The directory structure will b the same on the remote host as well that is the Plugins would go in /usr/local/nagios/libexec.

		AFAIK if you do not specify any directory at configure time the default points to /usr/local/etc on LINUX machines.
		In case you start your nrpe daemon via a script in /etc/init.d, the script defines the location of the config file and the binaries. 
		In the directory where you have extracted the NRPE package you find examples of init-scripts for various platforms.
		In these scripts you will see the example locations for the config files and the nrpe binary.

		Guys I need to know that after installing the Nagios Plugs and NRPE on remote host, where does the nrpe.cfg and other files related to NRPE need to reside.
