So we've installed the latest version of "nrpe" on a server (normal configuration). Then we installed "nrpe_nt" on a windows 2003 server machine and it works fine. We're also trying to run "nrpe" (for hosts) as a standalone deamon on a linux machine but we've compiled it without SSL (mainly because it wouldn't allow use to compile it, even with openssl (missing libraries)... so we're running the standalone deamon with the -n option).
<br>When we installed the 2.3 version, I was kinda surprised that the "allowed_hosts" command in the config file didn't work anymore and we also got that error : "CHECK_NRPE: Socket timeout after 10 seconds.", so we thought it had something to do with the "allowed_hosts" command in the config file. We were also getting an error in the "/var/log/messages" file saying : "(date) slxids nrpe[9493]: Could not read request from client, bailing out...".
<br>So we deleted the newest version and installed the 2.0 version of NRPE (without SSL again). So the "allowed_hosts" command is back, but the -n option when we lauch nrpe as a standalone deamon isn't there anymore... and we're still getting the same errors.
<br><br>Anybody has an idea of what's going on? Is it because of SSL?<br>
