Hi, I'm running NRPE 2.7.1 on a Fedora 6 machine. My Nagios 2.8 server is talking to it fine, and all NRPE checks are succeeding.
However, every 5 minutes I'm getting the following error logged in my /var/log/messages log on the FC6 machine: Apr 8 08:33:58 acs20aa6 nrpe[23649]: Error: Could not complete SSL handshake. 5 Yet when I look in my /var/log/secure log (which stores every command run through sudo from NRPE), I cannot match the SSL handshake error to a time of a check attempt from my Nagios server, e.g. for the above error: Apr 8 08:31:10 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_uptime Apr 8 08:31:10 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_dns -H portland-1.andyshellam.eu -a 89.200.137.203 -t 5 -w 3 -c 5 Apr 8 08:31:10 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 5,4,3 -c 10,8,6 Apr 8 08:35:18 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 25% -c 10% -p / Apr 8 08:35:19 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 1:1 -c 1:1 -C named Apr 8 08:35:19 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_swap -w 25% -c 10% Apr 8 08:35:32 acs20aa6 sudo: nagios : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -w 150 -c 200 As you can see, there is no check being carried out at 8:33 (the time of the SSL error.) Plus there are no failing NRPE checks on the Nagios server for this host. I'm baffled. I've just checked on 2 of my other machines, which are running NRPE 2.7.1 on Fedora 4 and FreeBSD 6.1, and they both have the same problem - a reported SSL handshake error when no checks were being carried out. Now, on the FreeBSD machine, it has a firewall only letting my Nagios server talk to port 5666, so I know it's not possible for it to be another Nagios machine somewhere. Any ideas what could be causing NRPE to fail a connection attempt every 5 minutes, when it doesn't appear to be Nagios talking to it?
