Hi, we are sorry but we found out that we were responsible ourselves for that odd behaviour. We deployed nrpe.cfg with a puppet module that changed the pidfile location, which was different to that in the init script.
Changing back to the default location (/var/run/nagios/nrpe.pid) solved our issues. so sorry for blaming debian, in our case, everything is fine here now. greetings, varac -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
