Hi,

You can use the -p <port> parameter on check_nrpe

I will advice you configure the nrpe daemon on the remote host to listen on which ever port you choose. After that, restart nagios on the monitoring host and use the plugin in the libexec directory to see if you can still talk to the remote server.

To answer your question, I do not know of any directive to change the port number for nrpe on nagios.

Perhaps it is harded coded in the plugin, perhaps not, you will only know after testing it.

U have to explain your setup pretty well before I can advice.

For example, a web server listens on port 80. A web browser connects to the web server on port 80 before communication can take place.

How is your setup like?

   Viktor,

   The nrpe.cfg file (in my install its in /etc/Nagios) hold the port
   number 5666, is this what you rlooking for?
Hello, thanks

The question is: Is there a configuration direcitive for Nagios to connect remote NRPE on a port nuber different from 5666?


Do you know that directive?

Thank you


Viktor
