Have tired many a time to get nrpe running on aix but never have had a smooth experience. Aix n HpUX have always been issues to get up and running on. We ended up writing our own plugins on the older *nix boxes. But now even those are outdated and have be to redone for AIX5L. Some of us needs(probably i will sometime soon) to take ownership on the aix front. This is the only way we will ever get stable plugins for aix/hpux/solaris. Is there a plugin roadmap on the risc front?.

From the Nagios host I'm getting: # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H grenados CHECK_NRPE: Received 0 bytes. Are we allowed to connect to the host? and on the client I just see the following in the syslog: Jul 11 06:49:04 ns1 nrpe[29329]: [ID 927837 <a href="http://mail.info" title="http://mail.info (http://mail.info) (http://mail.info)" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> mail.info </a>] connect from <a href="http://202.139.122.88" title="http://202.139.122.88 (http://202.139.122.88) (http://202.139.122.88)" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">202.139.122.88</a> (Aside: why's the logging going to " <a href="http://mail.info" title="http://mail.info (http://mail.info) (http://mail.info)" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> mail.info</a>"??)

If anyone can help I'd be most appreciative; I'm out of ideas as to how to troubleshoot this any further.
