6 # Sample NRPE Config File
7 # Written by: Ethan Galstad (nagios@nagios.org)
9 # Last Modified: 11-23-2007
12 # This is a sample configuration file for the NRPE daemon. It needs to be
13 # located on the remote host that is running the NRPE daemon, not the host
14 # from which the check_nrpe client is being executed.
15 #############################################################################
19 # The syslog facility that should be used for logging purposes.
26 # The name of the file in which the NRPE daemon should write it's process ID
27 # number. The file is only written if the NRPE daemon is started by the root
28 # user and is running in standalone mode.
30 pid_file=/var/run/nagios/nrpe.pid
34 # Port number we should wait for connections on.
35 # NOTE: This must be a non-priviledged port (i.e. > 1024).
36 # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
43 # Address that nrpe should bind to in case there are more than one interface
44 # and you do not want nrpe to bind on all interfaces.
45 # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
47 #server_address=127.0.0.1
52 # This determines the effective user that the NRPE daemon should run as.
53 # You can either supply a username or a UID.
55 # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
62 # This determines the effective group that the NRPE daemon should run as.
63 # You can either supply a group name or a GID.
65 # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
71 # ALLOWED HOST ADDRESSES
72 # This is an optional comma-delimited list of IP address or hostnames
73 # that are allowed to talk to the NRPE daemon.
75 # Note: The daemon only does rudimentary checking of the client's IP
76 # address. I would highly recommend adding entries in your /etc/hosts.allow
77 # file to allow only the specified host to connect to the port
78 # you are running this daemon on.
80 # NOTE: This option is ignored if NRPE is running under either inetd or xinetd
82 allowed_hosts=127.0.0.1
86 # COMMAND ARGUMENT PROCESSING
87 # This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients
88 # to specify arguments to commands that are executed. This option only works
89 # if the daemon was configured with the --enable-command-args configure script
92 # *** ENABLING THIS OPTION IS A SECURITY RISK! ***
93 # Read the SECURITY file for information on some of the security implications
94 # of enabling this variable.
96 # Values: 0=do not allow arguments, 1=allow command arguments
103 # This option allows you to prefix all commands with a user-defined string.
104 # A space is automatically added between the specified prefix string and the
105 # command line from the command definition.
107 # *** THIS EXAMPLE MAY POSE A POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK, SO USE WITH CAUTION! ***
109 # Execute restricted commmands using sudo. For this to work, you need to add
110 # the nagios user to your /etc/sudoers. An example entry for alllowing
111 # execution of the plugins from might be:
113 # nagios ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/
115 # This lets the nagios user run all commands in that directory (and only them)
116 # without asking for a password. If you do this, make sure you don't give
117 # random users write access to that directory or its contents!
119 # command_prefix=/usr/bin/sudo
124 # This option determines whether or not debugging messages are logged to the
126 # Values: 0=debugging off, 1=debugging on
133 # This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will
134 # allow plugins to finish executing before killing them off.
141 # This specifies the maximum number of seconds that the NRPE daemon will
142 # wait for a connection to be established before exiting. This is sometimes
143 # seen where a network problem stops the SSL being established even though
144 # all network sessions are connected. This causes the nrpe daemons to
145 # accumulate, eating system resources. Do not set this too low.
147 connection_timeout=300
151 # WEEK RANDOM SEED OPTION
152 # This directive allows you to use SSL even if your system does not have
153 # a /dev/random or /dev/urandom (on purpose or because the necessary patches
154 # were not applied). The random number generator will be seeded from a file
155 # which is either a file pointed to by the environment valiable $RANDFILE
156 # or $HOME/.rnd. If neither exists, the pseudo random number generator will
157 # be initialized and a warning will be issued.
158 # Values: 0=only seed from /dev/[u]random, 1=also seed from weak randomness
160 #allow_weak_random_seed=1
164 # INCLUDE CONFIG FILE
165 # This directive allows you to include definitions from an external config file.
167 #include=<somefile.cfg>
171 # INCLUDE CONFIG DIRECTORY
172 # This directive allows you to include definitions from config files (with a
173 # .cfg extension) in one or more directories (with recursion).
175 #include_dir=<somedirectory>
176 #include_dir=<someotherdirectory>
180 # COMMAND DEFINITIONS
181 # Command definitions that this daemon will run. Definitions
182 # are in the following format:
184 # command[<command_name>]=<command_line>
186 # When the daemon receives a request to return the results of <command_name>
187 # it will execute the command specified by the <command_line> argument.
189 # Unlike Nagios, the command line cannot contain macros - it must be
190 # typed exactly as it should be executed.
192 # Note: Any plugins that are used in the command lines must reside
193 # on the machine that this daemon is running on! The examples below
194 # assume that you have plugins installed in a /usr/local/nagios/libexec
195 # directory. Also note that you will have to modify the definitions below
196 # to match the argument format the plugins expect. Remember, these are
200 # The following examples use hardcoded command arguments...

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