Thanks for the clues! I think I'd seen that URL in my research but the `rsyslog` filter had escaped me. I'll see about pestering upstream when time permits, any hints on where or who to pester appreciated.
For the record, for Mint-20 or Ubuntu Focal using stock `rsyslog` this prevented the log spam but isn't a real fix: ``` sudo vi /etc/rsyslog.d/10-nrpe-log-spam.conf sudo systemctl restart rsyslog ``` File contents to "fix" NODE spam: ``` # /etc/rsyslog.d/10-nrpe-log-spam.conf # 2020-07-26 Sun: Suppress useless NRPE log spam # See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-nrpe/+bug/1888184 :msg, contains, "Request packet version was invalid" stop :msg, contains, "Could not read request from client 192.168.1.11, bailing out" stop :msg, contains, "INFO: SSL Socket Shutdown" stop ``` File contents to "fix" Server spam: ``` # /etc/rsyslog.d/10-nrpe-log-spam.conf # 2020-07-26 Sun: Suppress useless NRPE log spam # See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-nrpe/+bug/1888184 :msg, contains, "does not support Version 3 Packets" stop ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888184 Title: nagios-nrpe-server-4 is creating incorrect log spam To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-nrpe/+bug/1888184/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
