NRPEv2 on 2.1

ncolunga

I've upgraded one server from 2.0.2 to 2.1 (2013/06/06) and nrpe is not working now.

I get a "Could not read request from client" SSL error.

2.0.2 and 2.1 packages appears as nrpe-2.12_3 but

on 2.0.2 we get 2.12 with ssl support.

But in 2.1 version we get 2.13 without ssl support.

Looks like the build flags got flip-flopped and SSL was off instead of on. The 2.1 package is rebuilding now. If you reinstall it later tonight or tomorrow, it should be OK.

Fixed!

Thank you.

Thanks Jimp… I didn't bother troubleshooting the why, just created a new command that did the check without SSL as it's on a closed network anyways. But thanks for fixing it.... now I guess I have to update. Is it still recommended to remove the package before installing the updated pfsense?

Thanks again,

I had to deinstall it to avoid pfsense to take old package from his package cache.

For a binary change, it's typically best to uninstall and reinstall to ensure you have the most current package installed.
