Hi,
I am not very happy with naming of nrpe and its sub-pkg. we have nagios-nrpe-client, nagios-nrpe-server
While seeing the client pkg I'll be misled to install this pkg on the remote box and vice versa. But the "client" pkg has to be installed on the nagios box.
That's why I am thinking of:
- nagios-nrpe it is the package to be installed on the remote box.
- nagios-nrpe-plugin or nagios-plugins-nrpe
just the name will let you associate to install this pkg on the nagios box.
What do you think ?
Any recommendations are welcome Kind Regards Chris
Is there any interest to discuss this ?
Regards Chris

I suggest you consider this as "no objection".
Looking at your proposal, it makes sense for me - go ahead,
Andreas
Hi Andreas,
i did go ahead. see existing SR (34207)
The packages - nagios-nrpe-client - nagios-nrpe-server are marked as obsolete:
Now: - nagios-nrpe (obsoletes nagios-nrpe-client) and provides the NRPE daemon which should be installed on the remote box which should be monitored.
- nagios-plugins-nrpe (obsoletes nagios-nrpe-server) and provides "check_nrpe" which should be installed on the server hosting nagios.
- nagios-nrpe-doc contains documentation and can be installed where ever you want
Kind Regards Chris
