NAGIOS NRPE for Windows. Error: "CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. "

[Sal Ila]

Hi All,

I am a newcomer in this list and new with using the product.

I am attempting to configure Nagios NRPE for UNIX in the Nagios Monitoring
server and NAGIOS NRPE for Windows in the monitored XP PC. The NRPE daemon
in the UNIX servers and the NRPE service in the Windows PC appear both
running. The Nagios console is able to show me the Windows XP PC and its
ping but the CPU load service shows "critical" and the message " CHECK_NRPE:
Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. "

I have changed the windows.cfg syntax in the UNIX monitoring server from
"check_nt" syntax to "check_nrpe" but the result was a different error.

define service{
        use                     generic-service
        host_name              windowsXP
        service_description     CPU Load
        check_command           check_nrpe!pdm_cpuload
        }

Any idea what the problem might be? Does the NRPE versions need to match the
same operating system? Do I need to manage NRPE UNIX clients with a UNIX
NRPE Monitoring server and NRPE Windows clients with a Windows NRPE
Monitoring server?

Thanks.
Regards
Salvo
