== Nagios plugins ==

*Nagios doesn't come by default with the NRPE functionality enabled.
**Beware: although Nagios RPMs are distributed with Quattor, the NRPE RPMs are not.
*On this page an incomplete list of plugins can be found together with some information.

=== Enable NRPE for Nagios ===

**there are a few things to change during the configuration:

**The scripts were placed with filecopy but they have been added to the RPM as well, so the additional templates can be phased out
