an anyone help? I am trying to upgrade but a get error messages about nagios-nrpe-server and bind.

Here is the console output:

>apt-get upgrade

Errors were encountered while processing:
nagios-nrpe-server
bind9
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

This is a live web server with several hundred domains hosted so I am very nervous about doing anything that will take it out. I have nightly backups but it's a real pain getting my hosting company to restore and can take several hours, so I'm really nervous taking risks.

TIA.

You should be able to install just the fixes, with apt-get install -y --only-upgrade openssl libssl1.0.0

Failing that, you'll need to actually fix your packages, go and look for the apt logs why they are failing, and amend your post with those.
