that works fine:

$ ~>/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_ntp_time  -H ntp1
NTP OK: Offset 0.0008395434124 secs|offset=0.000840s; 60.000000;120.000000;

but, I'm trying to verifty the NTP server's health, not that my monitoring host is sync'd to it.

"Notes:
 This plugin checks the clock offset between the local host and a
 remote NTP server. It is independent of any commandline programs or
 external libraries.

 If you'd rather want to monitor an NTP server, please use
 check_ntp_peer."


but that doesn't work (for me) :

$ ~>/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_ntp_peer -H ntp1 -t 3
CRITICAL - Socket timeout after 3 seconds

Has anybody gotten Nagois' check_ntp_* to play nicely with a remote

this is against an OpenNTP server;

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]:12>$ /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_ntp_time -H ntp
NTP OK: Offset -0.002711469308 secs|offset=-0.002711s; 60.000000;120.000000;

so, it can work.
