Failure to run check_nrpe in hp-ux

[Tingli]

I have installed nagios plugin nagios-plugins-1.4.9 and nrpe nrpe-2.8.1 in rp3440 hp-ux 11.23 system. But when I run check_nrpe to itself, I got the message:
(/usr/local/nagios)# ./check_nrpe -H mysystem
CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.
or:
(/usr/local/nagios)# ./check_nrpe -H mysystem -n
CHECK_NRPE: Response packet had invalid CRC32.

It won't work even I set the ssh key for the system itself.

Hi,

Yes, I did. The -n is meant to bypass ssl, but it didn't work either.

You can download the complete set from the internet express bundle.

Now, I think it might be an openssl issue.

[Robert-Jan Goossens]

which version of openssl do you have installed?

or if you would like to use the HP product.

It is openssl-0.9.7e.

I finally made it work, that by going to daemon instead of running inetd.
