Omreport and Nagios NRPE Permissions

[Mike Hanby]

Howdy,

 

I'm using the check_dell plugin perl script to monitor the hardware on
my Nagios server. It works fine.

 

I'm trying to get it working via NRPE to check remote Dell systems. NRPE
is configured using xinetd.

 

If I run the check_dell.pl script locally, the command successfully
executes omreport and spits out the expected info.

 

If I run it via NRPE (either locally or from the Nagios server),
omreport errors siting permissions.

 

Do I have to give the nagios user (or some other account) the privileges
to run omreport? The file permissions look ok, so I'm suspecting
something internal to OpenManage.

 

Thanks for any suggestions,

 

Mike
