I was glad to see this get developed. We've been migrating away from NSCA to NRDP for multiple reasons:
- Long output support.
- More consistent results interfacing with a web server rather than the NSCA daemon.
- Easier to develop interfaces against URL encoded XML submissions (easy multi-language / multi-platform support).
- It may be my imagination but check results seem to get picked up faster by nagios through NRPD.
I wished it came with a client in another language but PHP. We don't have php binaries in our environment.
I've written a perl based client that uses the NRDP protocol but functions as a dropin replacement for send_nsca. I may post if there's interest.

It would be great it you'd be willing to post the Perl client. I can include it with future NRDP releases if you're okay with that.
FYI, I have plans to develop a bash client for NRDP in the future unless your Perl client is so easy that it negates that need. :)
Try as I might, I can not get newlines in the output either via the web page submission or via send_nrdp.pl. I've tried \n, \\n, actual newlines and all I ever get is the first line and that's it.
This is a huge step forward from NSCA, thanks for the contribution. No more external config is a huge plus, as is the firewall hassle being eliminated.
I am trying to use NRDP.
Please give me the hint how to make it work with http_post.
The first TEST is OK : DISABLE_HOST_NOTIFICATIONS
The second TEST on a service is NOT OK.
