Dear Managers,
I need some advise from anyone who has successfully compiled nrpe on Tru64
UNIX.
The nrpe software is an add-on for the NAGIOS software. It allows a
NAGIOS server to contact the local system; run local monitoring
scripts/programs on it; and pass back the outcome to the remote NAGIOS
server.
I am running into problems with the configure script for nrpe, I then
encounter problems during the make. I am using the standard Dec compiler
shipped with Tru64 UNIX. The Gnu C compiler is not installed on the
system. I am looking to build nrpe for the following Tru64 UNIX
versions: 5.1B 5.1A and 4.0F.
Any suggestions on how to get around this issue would be appreciated.
I plan on running nrpe on the Tru64 UNIX systems along with some local
plug-ins. The standard plug-ins compile OK on Tru64, but the nrpe
component does not configure or compile correctly. Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
Here is a short summary description of nrpe:
NRPE - This program runs as a background process on the remote
host and processes command
execution requests from the check_nrpe plugin on the Nagios host. Upon
receiving a plugin
request from an authorized host, it will execute the
command line associated with the
command name it received and send the program output
and return code back to the
check_nrpe plugin.
I have been able to successfully compile and run nrpe on a Solaris 9 system
using gcc.
When I try configuring nrpe on my Tru64 UNIX system, I get these errors
below during the configure step.
