Hello,
Did you check your /etc/services for "nrpe 5666/tcp"?

This is interesting:
although running the check_nrpe -H localhost on the remote host returns the error, I am able to monitor from the actual Nagios server.  And yes, LOCAL, localhost, 127.0.0.1, etc. are in the hosts.allow file.

I thought I would take the chance and see if I could monitor since I was receiving some data from the command line, just this one error.  And sure enough, can.  Now my question is WHY this is like this?

Thanks again,
Izz
