Hi, came across this just now while browsing my NAGIOS mail folder.
>From my notes on installing NAGIOS on Solaris 10:
If getting SSL handshake error from nrpe, it may be that you don't have
the SUN Solaris crypto packages SUNWcrman, SUNWcryr and SUNWcry
installed. Install them in the order: SUNWcrman, SUNWcryr, and SUNWcry
Note: they are in the Solaris_10/Product subdirectory of the Solaris 10
DVD
# pkgadd -d . SUNWcrman SUNWcry SUNWcryr
For the other error with the "svc:/network/nrpe/tcp", I would suggest
you delete the SMF profile for NRPE and recreate it following the
instructions by Stephan Windmueller
<mailto:stephan.windmueller at cs.uni-dortmund.de> at
http://ls5-www.cs.uni-dortmund.de/~windmueller/nagios-solaris10.html.
You don't need the whole thing, just the "Integrating Nagios into SMF"
section. Look out for the paths and modify to match your install.

Per my previous email... I had the EXACT same issue and went to
check_by_ssh for my Solaris hosts... I'm thinking there must be some
magic step we're missing that isn't into the current "oh yeah... if you
have Solaris then do this" knowledge pool...

fyi
I have been using nagios and nrpe 9-10 years now; sparc and x86, started
back with solaris 7
and now soalris 10, zero error.... mix solaris, aix, hpux, linux.
The server has always been Solaris (sparc or x86), use
inetd/xinetd/deamon mode
again zero error
The one 'problem' i have seen people complain about is ssl and nrpe,
read the manual and it should pretty
clear what todo, 99.9% is almost the use not having doing some RTFM
thingy :)
The other one is tcp-wrapper and nrpe, nrpe has a access control
buildt-in
so I never understood one would need to use tcp-wrapper :)
