HI Hari,
 
I looked at that but I can't see the xinetd folder on Debian, should it be
there by default?

if you are running it through xinetd like you are supposed to then there is
a log entry created on the system like so

 xinetd[673]: START: nrpe pid=27671 from........

-h

how do you mean if nrpe will work locally?

if you want to use nrpe on the local machine you can just give it the
hostname or the ip address (but you can't use "localhost" as it will fail in
the SSL handshake)

-h

Hi All,



Can someone help out with my CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 

seconds issue.



I have Nagios running on a Debian server, runs tests to Windows Boxes OK.



I am attempting to do remote checks of an Debian server.



I can telnet on port 5666 to the remote server, netstat -l reports: 

tcp        0      0 *:nrpe                  *:*                     LISTEN



I can run this check on the remote server:



# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 10.0.10.200 -p 5666 -t 30 

check_disk # NRPE v2.0



What information/configurations files do you need from me?



Regards

Paul Roberts.
