[Nagiosplug-help] Nrpe problem

[Ian Davidson]

Hi all,

I've installed the check-nrpe services on a remote machine and a central
server. When running the check_nrpe command against the remote host I
see on the server...

[central-server]# ./check_nrpe -H dc.lab.jnpr.net -p 5666
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.
[central-server]# 


And in /var/log/messages on the remote host...

May  9 15:57:54 dc nrpe[9459]: No variable value specified in config
file '/usr/local/nagios/nrpe.cfg' - Line 1 
May  9 15:57:54 dc nrpe[9459]: Config file '/usr/local/nagios/nrpe.cfg'
contained errors, bailing out...


Anyone got any ideas? I'm having to assume that the nrpe.cfg file I have
is busted ... Or I've gotten something really wrong with the install.

Cheers,

Ian
