nagios and remote checking

[carole verdon]

You must compile nrpe package on nagios server then copie check_nrpe in 
good directory, default is /usr/local/nagios/libexec.

On remote hosts, you must compile nrpe package and plugins. Then copie 
nrpe demon (nrpe-2.0/src/) in bin directory of nagios (default is 
/usr/local/nagios/bin) and nrpe.cfg in for exemple 
/usr/local/nagios/etc. Also modify the nrpe.cfg to take into account the 
adress of nagios server and define services. And to finish, start the 
nrpe demon.

To test if it works, you can try on nagios server this:
./check_nrpe -H adress_remote_host -c command_name -a arguments (if 
there are)

Exemple:
./check_nrpe -H xxxx -c check_disk -a 10% 5%
