RPM based software on Endian Box

I would like to install three things on my EFW box, and that is

 

1)      NRPE

2)      Acronis Backup

3)      Fail2ban

 

NRPE because we have nagios monitoring in house, and it would be GREAT if we could monitor our firewall as well as everything else

Acronis Backup – well, that’s a no brainer!

Fail2ban – this is an app which we use to drop connections that we do not want! We already have it running on 6 of our colo boxes, it would be nice to be uniform

 

Any thoughts, hints, or tips will be appreciated. Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Mr Gabriel

I’m going to assume that no one has attempted to install RPM based utils on EFW box before? Or that it is a bad idea?

Hi Gabriel,

I successfully installed these rpms (found at rpm.pbone.net) on some EFW
(2.2rcX and final):

nagios-nrpe-2.5.2-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
nagios-plugins-1.4.12-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
tcp_wrappers-7.6-39.i386.rpm

(I remember using --no-deps and/or --force to install)

Only problem: nrpe does not start during (I believe it's since 2.2final)

Greetz,
Andy

nagios working? I just recompile it :) mod the init scripts and no more,

Fortunately, the endian boxes do not need to reboot many times, so it is not
that hard to restart nrpe manually :-)

BTW: you are not telling me to recompile on the endian system, do you? Which
mod to the init scripts did you do?

Greetz,
Andy
