Dear List

i have a problem to get nrpe work on an esx server. On the nagios box nrpe-2.81 is installed on the esx server nrpe-2.81b 
So checks from the nagios box to the esx server works correctly. 

./check_nrpe -H XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -c check_disk1 -n
DISK OK - free space: / 3269 MB (70% inode=90%);| /=1398MB;4898;4908;0;4918

but no values are written in the webinterface  only this message

Datastore size CRITICAL 	28-07-2008 12:53:11 	0d 2h 16m 23s 	4/4 	(Service Check Timed Out) 

and the esx server log show me this

Jul 28 12:42:10 vmware nrpe[4716]: Could not read request from client, bailing out...

So i did a lot of things recompile nrpe, use an older version like 2.12 an so on but i can´t find a solution for the above error message. Any idea what i´m missing or what i´m doing wrong.



Mit freundlichem Gruß / Best regards
