Nrpe

On clonweb (where nagios is running);

 cd /usr/local/src
 cp ../downloads/nrpe-2.6.tar.gz .
 gunzip nrpe-2.6.tar.gz
 tar xvf nrpe-2.6.tar
 rm nrpe-2.6.tar
 cd /usr/local/src/nrpe-2.6
 ./configure --prefix=/apps/nrpe2.6

On any other machine which suppose to be remotely monitored by clonweb:

 mkdir /apps/nrpe2.6
 mkdir /apps/nrpe2.6/libexec

 mkdir /apps/nrpe2.6/bin
 cp sample-config/nrpe.cfg /apps/nrpe2.6/etc/
 cp src/nrpe /apps/nrpe2.6/bin
 cp src/check_nrpe /apps/nrpe2.6/libexec/
 cp init-script /etc/init.d/nrpe

 emacs /etc/init.d/nrpe:
 # config: /apps/nrpe2.6/etc/nrpe.cfg
 NrpeBin=/apps/nrpe2.6/bin/nrpe
 NrpeCfg=/apps/nrpe2.6/etc/nrpe.cfg

 emacs /apps/nrpe2.6/etc/nrpe.cfg: for example

on clonweb: copy pluging we want to execute remotely

(remote machines will not see /www, only /apps !!!) cp /www/nagios2.6/libexec/check_disk /apps/nrpe2.6/libexec/

Testing 'check_nrpe':

on clonweb:

 /www/nagios2.6/libexec/check_nrpe -H clonpc1 -c check_disk
   must return:
 DISK OK - free space: / 7762 MB (54% inode=84%);| /=6411MB;14912;14922;0;14932

on non-clonweb:

 /apps/nrpe2.6/libexec/check_nrpe -H clonpc1 -c check_disk

Testing 'nrpe':

NOTE: user 'nagios' must exist to run 'nrpe' daemon !!! (private group 'nagios' ?) On solaris use: 'useradd -d /home/nagios -m -c "Nagios" nagios'. if complains, check passwd file by 'pwconv' (should not be blank lines !!!).

on Linux:

 /etc/init.d/nrpe start
 /etc/init.d/nrpe stop

on Solaris:
