check_nrpe: could not complete SSL handshake

[Tong Young]

Check your /var/log/messages for an error.  I had the same error and it
said it couldn't open nrpe.cfg.  So I checked the file and the
permissions were wrong ( only root could read the file, but I was
running nrpe under a different user.)

So after changing the permissions everything works fine and dandy.

Subject: [Nagios-users] check_nrpe: could not complete SSL handshake

Hi all,
I have compiled and build NRPE on both a nagios daemon and client
machine
with no errors.  However, when running check_nrpe as follows from the
daemon
machine:
./check_nrpe -t 20 -H somehost.com check_disk

I receive the message:
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

I have enabled debug logging on the client machine, and see nothing
entered
into the log. I have openssl 9.6b installed on both machines.  When
running
check_nrpe with no arguments I receive the following information:

Version: 2.0b1
Last Modified: 04-03-2003
License: GPL
SSL/TLS Available: Anonymous DH Mode, OpenSSL 0.9.6 or higher required

That's about all the background information I can think of ;-)  Has
anyone
seen this before?

TIA!
Tom
