[Nagios-users] Exit code for NRPE connection refused?

2010-11-05 Thread RT
Using: Nagios Version 3.2.2 Can check_nrpe be convinced (or hacked) to exit UNKNOWN rather than CRITICAL on `Connection Refused`? Is there a way to accomplish this without having to modify check_nrpe's source directly? Currently, NRPE returns 2 for `Connection Refused` as well as `Not defined`.

I have a couple of systems that are reporting critical notifications, that when you drill into them, the Service : Total Processes has been triggered. Its showing critical process level of 231, 453, for example. Which on a production server is nothing really --- my question is, how do I change
