I have another issue with NRPE. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>the computer which I need to monitor is running NRPE with IP <A href="http://10.0.0.3">10.0.0.3</A>. The server being <A href="http://10.0.0.2">10.0.0.2</A>.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>on the client/remote computer side I have put the server address as <A href="http://10.0.0.2">10.0.0.2</A>, 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.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>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.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Cheers!!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Asif Rajan<BR><BR> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=gmail_quote>On 3/31/07, <B class=gmail_sendername>Asif Rajan</B> <<A href="mailto:rajanasif@gmail.com">rajanasif@gmail.com</A>> wrote:</SPAN> <BLOCKQUOTE class=gmail_quote style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">The platform is RHEL AS4 Update4.
