Package: nagios-nrpe-plugin Version: 2.15-1 Severity: normal Running from the shell:
root@monitoring2:/etc/icinga# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 192.168.5.88 -p 5505 -n -c check_ntp connect to address 192.168.5.88 port 5505: No route to host connect to host 192.168.5.88 port 5505: No route to hostroot@monitoring2:/etc/icinga# echo $? 255 Firstly the stderr reports the problem twice, in different ways, and doesn't terminate the second time with a new line. Secondly, I needed to run this by hand as all I got reported was Current Status: CRITICAL Status Information: Return code 255 is out of bounds It would have been helpful if the result had been: Current Status: UNKNOWN Status Information: No route to host Note that this is a firewall issue, pinging the host *does* work, which is why the service check is being done. Also IMHO the firewall should reject the connection instead of reporting no route to host, but that's not so relevant to the issue with check_nrps.
