From: Dermot Duffy Sent: 06 December 2011 17:04 To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake Hi, I have installed the following on a RHEL 5.4 blade server: - nagios-3.2.1 - nagios-plugins-1.4.11 - nrpe-2.12 Install went smoothly, compiled without error. Now trying to connect to my nagios server and get the following: # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. Port appears to be listening: [root@node2 ~]# netstat -at | grep nrpe tcp 0 0 *:nrpe *:* LISTEN [root@node2 ~]# netstat -plan | grep 5666 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5666 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 22482/xinetd Messages log shows the following: 2011-12-06T16:54:22.553812+00:00 node2 xinetd[2154]: libwrap refused connection to nrpe (libwrap=nrpe) from 127.0.0.1 2011-12-06T16:54:22.553834+00:00 node2 xinetd[2154]: FAIL: nrpe libwrap from=127.0.0.1 2011-12-06T16:54:22.554039+00:00 node2 xinetd[22482]: START: nrpe pid=2154 from=127.0.0.1 2011-12-06T16:54:22.554104+00:00 node2 xinetd[22482]: EXIT: nrpe status=0 pid=2154 duration=0(sec) My /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe is configured correctly as I have got several other servers (same spec) working fine.
