Hi Arnau, did I get that right that you trigger the wgets by check_nrpe? If so maybe the check takes too long to contact the nrpe daemon. That would explain why the nrpe time out is raised because the wget with its own timeout wasn't even executed already. To debug nrpe issues try setting debug=1 in nrpe.cfg and follow the logs while manually initiating your nrpe service check from your monitoring machine.

Not sure if this list is the best one for this kind of questions but, as many of you have experience with this, maybe you could help me. The host that runs icinga server is the same host that runs nrpe. I have some test which do a wget and depending on what they get they return exit code. wget uses --timeout option (5s) so, if it takes more than 5 seconds, I return an unknown and notification is not enabled for unknowns. NRPE has a timeout of 20 seconds. But yesterday I got some socket timeout, which makes me think that the problem is not with the check (cause it has its own timeout) but with icinga/nrpe pair. My question, how may I debug nrpe timeouts? A quick google search did not return any complete guide on howto do that... anyone could share his/her experiences? Many thanks ind advance, Cheers, Arnau ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
