Probem with nrpe and sudo on rhel5 servers

[Nicole Hähnel]

Hi,

I wrote a plugin to check running ipsec tunnels on our gateways.
The plugin needs to have access to /proc/net/ipsec_eroute, so I have to
run nrpe command with sudo.

sudoers (for testing):
nagios          ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: ALL

nrpe.conf:
command[check_tunnel]=sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_tunnel
--tunnels $ARG1$

I tested the plugin on the gateway, it works fine,
but with nagios I get "NRPE: Unable to read output".
Running the plugin without sudo, nagios has an output,
but 0 running tunnels.

Looks like a problem with sudo command on rhel5 servers.
Any ideas?


Thanks!

Nicole
