How to compile Nagios NRPE with static OpenSSL libraries
I'm compiling NRPE to deploy on several remote systems. The remote single-board computers run a stripped version of Debian on arm5 architecture. I'd like to avoid installing both OpenSSL and NRPE on all the systems and instead just build a single NRPE binary that includes all the relevant libraries.
I can't find any documented way to 'configure' and 'make' the NRPE binary with static libraries. Am I missing something in the documentation? Or is there some standard set of arguments/options I should use in the compile process to statically link the libraries?
Installation works fine with dynamic OpenSSL libraries.
I'm working on one of the nodes with the intention of compiling the code there and then copying the binary over to the other units.
Steps I've taken:
download and compile OpenSSL
- latest release from
https://github.com/openssl/openssl
- latest release from
download, configure and compile NRPE
- latest release from https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nrpe
- point it to the OpenSSL install (using --with-ssl=DIR --with-ssl-inc=DIR --with-ssl-lib=DIR)
- if only static openssl libs are available, NRPE's config will fail with the error "checking for SSL libraries... configure: error: Cannot find ssl libraries"
- latest release from https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nrpe
