--- Begin Message ---Package: nagios-nrpe-server Version: 2.12-4 Severity: important If default shell is /bin/dash then all check_procs commands run though nrpe daemon return a +1 value in the number of processes they count i.e. if there is one /usr/sbin/acpid process running the check will return 2, more seriously if there are none the check will return one, so if the check is used to restart dead daemons this won't be done anymore. The problem is dash-related: this can be easily verified by running root@server:~# su - nagios -s /bin/dash -c "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -c 1: -a '/sbin/init'" No directory, logging in with HOME=/ PROCS OK: 2 processes with args '/sbin/init' root@server:~# su - nagios -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -c 1: -a '/sbin/init'" No directory, logging in with HOME=/ PROCS OK: 1 process with args '/sbin/init' or by reconfiguring default system shell to be bash, then restarting /usr/sbin/nrpe and having nagios repeat all the process checks. I think I've tracked the problem to code line 1384 of file nrpe.c /* run the command */ fp=popen(command,"r"); since popen should do a /bin/sh -c command it is sensible to the default shell. I have not been able yet to discover why dash modify check_procs behaviour. For us at the moment workaround is reconfiguring /bin/bash as default shell, but of course we would prefer to conform to Debian standard.
