I had a similar issue. I think I fixed it by changing the command in the nrpe.conf file to /bin/perl /path/to/check_mem ... <div>On 5/24/06, Tim Hollinger < <a href="mailto:tim.hollinger@datamark.com">tim.hollinger@datamark.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi list I have an interesting situation. When I run NRPE through xinetd, I can run remote plugins normally with the exception of check_mem: a perl script that parses the /dev/mem file. If I run NRPE as a standalone daemon, I can run check_mem just fine. Both ways, NRPE starts with user=nagios and group=nagios. I have it working normally on another machine, so this is unique to only one. Anyone else seen this? Any suggestions, ideas, complaints? Let me know if you need more info, thanx in advance. - Tim Hollinger (thollinger) ----------------------- The mailing list archive is found here: <a href="http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagiosplug-help.32.0.html">http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagiosplug-help.32.0.html</a> ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
