You're right, i copied /etc/nagios from another server! I've been doing that for years on all new servers because there's a few default settings that i don't want to define over and over again.
The server i copied it from is currently running 10.04 but it has been running for years so the original nrpe.cfg was probably from 8.04 or something. root@yourmuze-com:~# grep pid /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg pid_file=/var/run/nrpe.pid I never realized that the location of the pid file was defined in nrpe.cfg.
