    Dear Managers,

    I need some advise from anyone who has successfully compiled nrpe on Tru64
    UNIX.
    The nrpe software is an add-on for the NAGIOS software. It allows a
    NAGIOS server to contact the local system; run local monitoring
    scripts/programs on it; and pass back the outcome to the remote NAGIOS
    server.

    I am running into problems with the configure script for nrpe, I then
    encounter problems during the make. I am using the standard Dec compiler
    shipped with Tru64 UNIX. The Gnu C compiler is not installed on the
    system. I am looking to build nrpe for the following Tru64 UNIX
    versions: 5.1B 5.1A and 4.0F.

    Any suggestions on how to get around this issue would be appreciated.

    I plan on running nrpe on the Tru64 UNIX systems along with some local
    plug-ins. The standard plug-ins compile OK on Tru64, but the nrpe
    component does not configure or compile correctly. Any suggestions would
    be appreciated.

    Here is a short summary description of nrpe:

    NRPE - This program runs as a background process on the remote
    host and processes command
                    execution requests from the check_nrpe plugin on the Nagios host. Upon
    receiving a plugin
                          request from an authorized host, it will execute the
    command line associated with the
                          command name it received and send the program output
    and return code back to the
                          check_nrpe plugin.

    I have been able to successfully compile and run nrpe on a Solaris 9 system
    using gcc.

    When I try configuring nrpe on my Tru64 UNIX system, I get these errors
    below during the configure step.
