Hi,
The installation of nrpe on most Unices is pretty easy and outlined in the
README of the source code tarball. Once the nrpe is installed or binraies
downloaded from http://www.bennyvision.com/projects/nagios/index.php or
nagiosexchange site, you need to follow these things
The common way is to have nrpe started by inetd.
Add a line like this to your service:
# grep nrpe /etc/services
nrpe 5666/tcp # Nagios Remote Plug-in Executor
Then configure your inetd similar to this.
Make sure that the paths to the nrpe binary and nrpe.cfg file are correct
and make a choice under what user nrpe should be run.
# grep nrpe /etc/inetd.conf
nrpe stream tcp nowait nagios /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nrpe nrpe -c
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/nrpe.cfg -i
If all looks correct make inetd reload its conf.
# /usr/sbin/inetd -c
and check that it registered the new service
# tail /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
# netstat -an -f inet|grep LISTEN|grep 5666
The most configuration part involves adapting nrpe.cfg to your needs and
checks that work on hpux.
You can start trying with some of the more common ones like
$ /opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_total_procs
PROCS CRITICAL: 369 processes
hope this helps
