NAME

       nrpe-ng - the next generation Nagios Remote Plugin Executor

SYNOPSIS

       nrpe-ng -c CONFIG_FILE [options]

DESCRIPTION

       nrpe-ng  is  a rewrite of NRPE, the Nagios Remote Plugin Executor. It is a combination of a daemon, nrpe-
       ng, and a client program, check_nrpe_ng, which work in concert to run  Nagios  check  scripts  on  remote
       hosts.  This  man  page  is  for the daemon component that runs on the hosts on which you wish to run the
       check programs.

OPTIONS

       This program supports the following options:

       -h     Show a summary of the available command-line options.

       -v     Display the program's version number and exit.

       --debug
              Enable debugging mode, which produces much more verbose logging  but  prevents  the  program  from
              logging to syslog.

       --c CONFIG_FILE, --config CONFIG_FILE
              Specify the configuraiton file to use when running the daemon. This option is required.

       -d, --daemon
              Fork  the program and continue running in the background as a daemon. This mode is the default, so
              neither of these options need to be given to gain this behaviour.

       -f     Do not fork into the background and remain in the foreground. This option is the opposite of -d or
              --daemon, and may be useful for debugging.
