I did have to add the third argument variable onto that because some of the other checks DO have a third argument, however after modifying my check to the one above, it worked fine. Thanks for the help though dude. On Thu, Mar 24, 2011 at 4:16 PM, Mark A.

I think you need to remove ‘$ARG3$’ from the end of your command line directive. Your service’s check_command is not passing a 3rd parameter, and based on my understanding, you are then passing an argument string of ‘’ which even though its blank, it sees a literal that it doesn’t know how to handle. I don’t have quotes in my Nagios config so maybe it does not like a blank string, its essentially seeing: …/check_nt -H 10.0.10.10 -p 12489 -v USEDDISKSPACE -l d ‘’ command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -p 12489 -v '$ARG1$' '$ARG2$' '$ARG3$' …and I don’t think it likes what is on the end is my suspicion. Try changing your debug mode in Nagios to have more verbose logging so you can see what exactly Nagios is executing and then you can diagnose your problem better to; you don’t want to leave this on for long because it generates a lot of information very very quickly. I usually use an alternative configuration if I need to do this that does not have a lot of my normal checks enabled. If you’re excluding warning and critical levels, make sure you know how the check is going to come back in all cases or force it OK using service tricks; it does have default levels. All of my disk space service checks are simply: check_command check_nt!USEDDISKSPACE!-l e -w 80 -c 90 With the command setup as: define command{ command_name check_nt command_line $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -s mySuperSecretPasswordHere -v $ARG1$ $ARG2$ } I use NSClient++ as well although the end-user client I don’t think it will make to much a difference until the check command will execute; how the client responds to the argument string is entirely different. I have a similar config to Keith on my machines which you can deploy and centrally manage through a GPO. I use allowed hosts and also passwords on the client. ML Mark A.
