NA
>Environment:
nrpe-2.13
>Description:
nrpe2, as installed by its port, runs as uid nagios and gid nagios once initialized. However, its pid file is written to /var/spool/nagios owned by root:wheel. When exiting, it can't remove its pidfile due to EPERM. Later it can refuse to start e.g. if the pid from the stale pidfile was taken by an unrelated process.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just reboot a system with nrpe2 enabled. See errors logged and nrpe not start.
May 22 19:26:57 nocproj nrpe[955]: Caught SIGTERM - shutting down...
May 22 19:26:57 nocproj nrpe[955]: Cannot remove pidfile '/var/spool/nagios/nrpe2.pid' - check your privileges.

May 22 19:31:54 nocproj nrpe[1014]: There's already an NRPE server running (PID 955). Bailing out...
>Fix:
Chown ${NAGIOSDIR} to nagios:nagios after creating it in the do-install target using whatever port.mk magic it takes now.
