My work on one of a cluster of ARM machines have commenced. However, as always I have not evading the difficulties that sometimes persist when installing a new piece of software on a device. First, I was able to download both tarball(s) files needed for installation of Nagios on a client. I then proceeded to compile and install the Nagios plugin on the ARM machine that I was granted access to. I then move on to do the same with the NRPE addon, which as I already mentioned is required for the installation process. Well this was doomed to go wrong...,upon extracting the tarball and running the ./compile command I was confronted with a errror message that was not very surprising. The error message indicated that the openssl library is missing, no surprise there. I figured since I did an install of this nature before I should be okay, to retrieve the header by running the "yum install openssl-devel" command, which was sufficient in my initial install of a Nagios client on another machine. My experience in this case was quite the opposite, I received an error (krb5-libs dependency missing), with a suggestion to run a yum --skip-broken/ yum package-cleanup as way of circumventing the compile process. In all honesty running those previous commands did nothing to facilitate my cause/efforts. This occurrence has set me back once more, with very limited time to meet my deliverables. Please see the screen capture which helps to corroborate what I mentioned above.
Interestingly enough I have not been able to locate a later version of the indicated missing library. At this stage I am bewildered by the outcome. I will offer updates, as they continue to become available.
