Hi everyone. I just configured my Nagios box to start monitoring with NRPE.
When I run check_nrpe H 127.0.0.1 it resolves the NRPE version as expected.
Since my monitoring server is colocated and I plan to monitor hosts behind
firewalls I setup a test server behind my firewall at home for testing
purposes.
I have TCP/5666 forwarded to the internal IP address of my test server. That
same port is also open on my Nagios server as well. I am running NRPE on my
Windows server. The version of NRPE running can be found here:
http://tinyurl.com/24o3h3
When I run check_nrpe H <Home IP Address> I get a socket timeout error. I
did a netstat on both servers and it looks like there is a connection.
TCP gwong-srvr1:5666 gwong-srvr1:0 LISTENING
TCP gwong-srvr1:netbios-ssn gwong-srvr1:0 LISTENING
TCP gwong-srvr1:5666 <Nagios IP>:36422 CLOSE_WAIT

TCP gwong-srvr1:5666 <Nagios IP>:38907 CLOSE_WAIT
TCP gwong-srvr1:5666 <Nagios IP>:38909 CLOSE_WAIT
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# netstat -at | grep nrpe
tcp 0 0 *:nrpe *:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 <Nagios IP>:38913 <Home IP>:nrpe ESTABLISHED
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# netstat -at | grep nrpe
tcp 0 0 *:nrpe *:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 <Nagios IP>:38913 <Home IP>:nrpe FIN_WAIT2
Any ideas why this won¹t work?
Thanks.
