SolutionI had to compile nrpe from the sources.
As far as I remember nrpe never was written for 64bit. The origins of nrpe go back to Ethan Galstad himself, and in the README accompanying the sources he stated that nrpe is a very simple and plainly written daemon that simply executes check commands on behalf of the Nagios server and reports back the checks' result.
Nevertheless, nrpe compiles and runs without any pain on hp-ux.

Re: Nagios on hp-ux (x64 and x32) question!
But at the Nagios depots only appeared for 11i v3 after they discontinued 11.11 support, if I remember correctly.
I'm not sure, but I think the Nagios depot for 11i v3 on the IE refers to the Nagios server component rather than the tiny nrpe add-on.
But you usually don't want to install the full blown nagios server part on a mere nagios monitored host.
You ought to check if nrpe is included in the IE Nagios depot and whether it's separable from the rest (i.e. can be installed on its own).
On the other hand, because hpux sw depots aren't much more than tar or pax archives it should be easily possible to only extract the nrpe binary from the depot. Usually that's all (together with an nrpe.conf file and an entry in /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services) which is required.
Well, maybe an installed OpenSSL (also from an hp-ux depot) is another prerequisite because nrpe, I think, usually gets compiled with TLS support.

Re: Nagios on hp-ux (x64 and x32) question!
Since just about all supported HP-UX systems (but a few on 11.11) are 64 bit this is moot.
And 32 bit applications work fine on a 64 bit kernel.

Re: Nagios on hp-ux (x64 and x32) question!
So, 64-bit application, or 32-bit application, "bit-ness" should not be a problem.

Re: Nagios on hp-ux (x64 and x32) question!
You can of course choose to compile the software for your 11.11 systems.
There is nothing stopping you from using Nagios across all HP-UX systems.
