Hi, All,

I've got some issues when tried to install NRPE_plugin (or addon) on a ngios
monitor host.

The server on which I wanted to get NRPE_plugin run has been installed and
configured with Nagios 3.2.1 and Centreon 2.1.8, and both of them ran okay.
BTW, the OS of the server is Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.

I followed the procedures described in the NRPE.pdf, and what I had done
included:
cd /usr/local/src
wget package of nrpe-2.12
untar
cd nrpe-2.12
./configure
make all
make install-plugin

Then,
cp /usr/local/src/nrpe-2.12/src/check_nrpe.c
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe
chmod a+x check_nrpe

When I tried to execute /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <remote
server running nrpe daemon>, I got the followed messages:
line 1: /bin: is a directory
line 2: centreon.conf: command not found
line 3: centreon.conf: command not found
line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `('
line 4: ` * Copyright (c) 1999-2008 Ethan Galstad (nagios at nagios.org)'

Actually, I even couldn't find the stuffs like '/bin' or 'centreon.conf' in
the check_nrpe.c file, so don't know where these errors came from.

This was the first time I tried to install and configure Nagios and the
frontend, and this error really confused me. Could anybody give me some help
with that?

I really appreciate it if anyone have time to read this mail and provide me
some advices.

Regards,
Collin
