Hi,

 

I'm currently using NRPE to monitor a few things, and it looks like I'm facing 
a bug :

depending on the plugin output, the end of output is... "strange". Some plugins 
with lots of output behave correctly, others with just a few words are not OK

 

A typical output is like this one :

# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H gate02 -c nrpe_listcmds

check_users

check_load

check_hda1

check_zombie_procs

check_total_procs

check_firewall

check_blackholes

check_varparts

check_slash

check_quattor

nrpe_listcmds

ç¿ç¿ç¿¨ç¿±ç¿ºç¿Ãç¿Ìç¿Õç¿Þç¿çç¿ðç¿ùç¿ç¿

                                      
ç¿ç¿ç¿&ç¿/ç¿8ç¿Aç¿Jç¿Sç¿\ç¿eç¿nç¿wç¿ç¿ç¿ç¿ç¿¤ç¿­ç¿¶ç¿¿ç¿Èç¿Ñç¿Úç¿ãç¿ìç¿õç¿þç¿ç¿ç¿ç¿"ç¿+ç¿4ç¿=ç¿Fç¿Oç¿Xç¿aç¿jç¿sç¿|ç¿

ç¿ç¿ç¿ 翩翲翻ç¿Äç¿Íç¿Öç¿

 

Not cool... If I add to the bash plugin an << echo -e "\0" >> at the end, the 
output is clean again... however, I add some "echo" or echo -e '\n' , the 
output still contains garbage.

Would this be a bug ? Or would I be doing something wrong ?

 

I tried changing the linefeed format (dos2unix and unix2dos) : with msdos 
linefeeds, the output cannot be read, and unix liefeeds don't change my output.

These strange chars at the end of the output always look to be the same for a 
given plugin, but they differ between plugins. I'm wondering if I'm seeing the 
remainings of the 1024bytes output limit... ?

 

I'm using nrpe-2.8.1-1.i386 and nrpe-plugin-2.8.1-1.i386 on an SL4.4 i386 box...

Thanks,

 

Frederic
