Hello all, I'm having a bit of difficulty with an install of nrpe on a Mac. Everything was working fine and suddenly the timeouts began to show up, causing everything to go critical.
Here's the story, I've made the nrpe.plist per instructions on this link; http://arfore.com/2008/10/12/starting-nrpe-via-launchd/?replytocom=1108#comment-1119 When I do a ps -A | grep nrpe there are over 450 sessions still running, and a telnet to the server from my Nagios install to the server "Chiserv02" on port 5666 opens and waits for its next instruction. The 'check_nrpe -H chiserv02 -c check_ping -t 30' will ultimately fail after 30 seconds despite the telnet session opening immediately. The plist file I ultimately came up with (and is working fine on other 10.5.8 servers) is this; <?xml version=.1.0. encoding=.UTF-8.?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC .-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN. . http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd.> <plist version=.1.0.> <dict> <key>KeepAlive</key> <dict> <key>NetworkState</key> <true/> </dict> <key>UserName</key> <string>nagios</string> <key>GroupName</key> <string>nagios</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe</string> <string>-c</string> <string>/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg</string> <string>-i</string> </array> <key>Sockets</key> <dict> <key>Listeners</key> <dict> <key>SockServiceName</key> <string>5666</string> <key>SockType</key> <string>stream</string> <key>SockFamily</key> <string>IPv4</string> </dict> </dict> <key>inetdCompatibility</key> <dict> <key>Wait</key> <false/> </dict> <key>Label</key> <string>org.nagios.nrpe</string> </dict> </plist> Thanks in advance, John
