7# NOTES:
8# This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon.  It needs to be
9# located on the remote host that is running the NRPE daemon, not the host
10# from which the check_nrpe client is being executed.

74# file to allow only the specified host to connect to the port
75# you are running this daemon on.

83# COMMAND ARGUMENT PROCESSING
84# This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients
85# to specify arguments to commands that are executed.  This option only works
86# if the daemon was configured with the --enable-command-args configure script
87# option.

89# *** ENABLING THIS OPTION IS A SECURITY RISK! ***
90# Read the SECURITY file for information on some of the security implications
91# of enabling this variable.

99# COMMAND PREFIX
100# This option allows you to prefix all commands with a user-defined string.
101# A space is automatically added between the specified prefix string and the
102# command line from the command definition.
103#
104# *** THIS EXAMPLE MAY POSE A POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK, SO USE WITH CAUTION! ***
105# Usage scenario:
106# Execute restricted commmands using sudo.  For this to work, you need to add
107# the nagios user to your /etc/sudoers.  An example entry for alllowing
108# execution of the plugins from might be:
109#
110# nagios          ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/
111#
112# This lets the nagios user run all commands in that directory (and only them)
113# without asking for a password.  If you do this, make sure you don't give
114# random users write access to that directory or its contents!

135
136
137# CONNECTION TIMEOUT
138# This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will
139# wait for a connection to be established before exiting. This is sometimes
140# seen where a network problem stops the SSL being established even though
141# all network sessions are connected. This causes the nrpe daemons to
142# accumulate, eating system resources. Do not set this too low.

148# WEEK RANDOM SEED OPTION
149# This directive allows you to use SSL even if your system does not have
150# a /dev/random or /dev/urandom (on purpose or because the necessary patches
151# were not applied). The random number generator will be seeded from a file
152# which is either a file pointed to by the environment valiable $RANDFILE
153# or $HOME/.rnd. If neither exists, the pseudo random number generator will
154# be initialized and a warning will be issued.

168# INCLUDE CONFIG DIRECTORY

177# COMMAND DEFINITIONS
178# Command definitions that this daemon will run.  Definitions
179# are in the following format:
180#
181# command[<command_name>]=<command_line>
182#
183# When the daemon receives a request to return the results of <command_name>
184# it will execute the command specified by the <command_line> argument.
185#
186# Unlike Nagios, the command line cannot contain macros - it must be
187# typed exactly as it should be executed.
188#
189# Note: Any plugins that are used in the command lines must reside
190# on the machine that this daemon is running on!  The examples below
191# assume that you have plugins installed in a /usr/local/nagios/libexec
192# directory.  Also note that you will have to modify the definitions below
193# to match the argument format the plugins expect.  Remember, these are
194# examples only!

206# The following examples allow user-supplied arguments and can
207# only be used if the NRPE daemon was compiled with support for
208# command arguments *AND* the dont_blame_nrpe directive in this
209# config file is set to '1'.  This poses a potential security risk, so
210# make sure you read the SECURITY file before doing this.
