Help in Running Nrpe inside inetd with TCP Wrappers on FreeBSD.

[Mukarram Syed]

Jan.
Thanks always for your responses.
I did add gaia's IP address in the nrpe.cfg file and
rebooted the system.  
I have enabled debug mode "debug=1" in the nrpe.cfg
file restarted inetd, I am getting the following in
the /var/log/messages:

Nov 23 20:56:22 gaia nrpe[78179]: Unable to open
config file '//nrpe.cfg' for reading 
Nov 23 20:56:22 gaia nrpe[78179]: Config file
'//nrpe.cfg' contained errors, bailing out...
Nov 23 20:56:27 gaia nrpe[78188]: Unable to open
config file '//nrpe.cfg' for reading 
Nov 23 20:56:27 gaia nrpe[78188]: Config file
'//nrpe.cfg' contained errors, bailing out...

I have checked everything but I am sure there is
something missing...Help would be appreciated. 
Thanks
-Mukarram.
