<br>
I am setting up Nagios with my first client. This is the output I get
when I execute the<br>
command from the command line from the Nagios host is<br>
<br>
"NRPE: Unable to read output "<br>
<br>
It also shows up in the nagios.log.<br>
<br>
The command line exec is:<br>
<br>
./check_nrpe -H 83556-dev.slc.com -c check_total_procs<br>
<br>
I have nrpe running on the client:<br>

I am running xinetd and the service definitions on the client are in
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg:<br>
