Well, I finally got the problem fixed. It turns out that the latest problem
was caused by some .so library files that were incorrect. I ran ldd on the
nrpe binary and looked at each file it was looking for. Going through the
files one-by-one, I found the files and had redo some sym links.
Hi all,
I'm getting a message from the syslog of my nrpe client that says:
Host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is not allowed to talk to us!
In the nrpe.cfg file I have the IP address of the nagios server:
allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1,172.20.40.45
I can ping the server just fine.
This is nrpe v 2.10, and server

Hi Christian,
No, nrpe doesn't run under xinetd or inetd. Thanks for asking.

Hi Marc,
Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I have the correct IP. Also I already have
debugging turned on in nrpe.cfg. I have other clients connecting just fine. I
just restarted nrpe and I got this message:

Grant,
Are remote checks from your Nagios server to this NRPE client
succeeding? Is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx one of your own, or an external IP
address? I'm thinking there may be a remote system trying to talk to
your NRPE system that it's not allowing (which is correct.) It could
potentially be
Hi Andy,
The remote nrpe client (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) is on a DMZ at work, and the nagios
server is internal. You're saying the remote nrpe system should not be able to
accept requests when queried from the nagios host. There shouldn't be any port
scanning going on. I had the networking folks
Hi Grant,
What I meant was NRPE is denying a connection from a host you've not
allowed in your config (i.e. it's not your Nagios server.) Can you
identify the server that NRPE is not allowing to connect? Is it one of
your own IP addresses?
The fact that your NRPE system is inside a DMZ may

Hi Andy,
Bear with me. I'm trying to understand all this
Hmm. That makes sense. Judging by the IP address in the NRPE logs,
that looks like its a problem. The IP address it says its not
allowed to talk to is the NAT'ed IP address, not
Hi Marc,
Well at least I'm understanding you now :-
Yeah, I can ping the private IP address of the nagios server. The public
address I'm seeing is NAT'ed IP address. I'm not going to make the box
dual-home, but an option seems to me to just give the Nagios server an external
DNS name and
Well, operator error (I made a mistake). I found that inside nrpe.cfg there is
a lines tha I needed to modify:
allowed_hosts=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
I modified that and now I get a different error:
nrpe[2779]: [ID 813741 daemon.error] Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 1
On the nagios server,
