Please help me with nrpe and FreeBSD

[Pascal Miquet]

Hello,

Are you allowed to run such command from your nagios server, and query
your FreeBSD server ?
You can try telnet FreeBSD_Server 5666 (If you've set the nrpe service
on the port 5666, as the default one)
Did you restart your (x)inetd to take in charge the new service ?

HTH

    Hello Everybody 
    
    I have some problems to configurate nrpe on my freebsd. I have runnig
    nagios 1.0b6 and i will do some external checks on other boxes. I have
    already done the following configuration:
    
    On the local FreeBSD box:
    Checkcommands.cfg
     # 'check-nrpe' command definition
     define command{
            command_name    check_nrpe
            command_line    $USER1$/check_nrpe $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$
            }
    Service.cfg
     define service{
            use                             generic-service
            host_name                       dub00as0
            service_description             check-users
            check_command                   check_nrpe!check-users
    	  ....
            }
    
    And on the other FreeBSD box:
    I have installed the nrpe and the nrpe.cfg under /usr/local/etc/nrpe/
    and i have installed the nagios plugins from the FreeBSD Ports. I have
    open hosts.allow for my first box for all services. After I have done
    the following configurations:
    
    Nrpe.cfg
     # PORT NUMBER
     server_port=5xxx
     debug=1
     # Command  command[check_users]=/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_users 5
    10
    
    Inetd.conf
     nrpe    stream  tcp     nowait          root
    /usr/local/etc/nrpe/nrpe -i /usr/local/etc/nrpe/nrpe.cfg
    
    Services
     nrpe            5xxx/tcp   #NRPE
    
    When I start now Nagios I become the error message CHECK_NRPE: Received
    0 bytes. Are we allowed to connect to the host? 
    
    What can I do ore wich missconfiguration i have? Please help me.
    
    Greats 
    Thomas
