That's what I was thinking too, but the commands do run fine, and their output gets saved to the checkresults temporary file. For example, running check_ping gives this on the cmd line: > ./check_ping -H localhost -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 5 PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 1.26 ms and I can see files like this in the checkresults dir: > cat /var/spool/nagios3/checkresults/checkLSzkYX ### Active Check Result File ### file_time=1198838164 ### Nagios Host Check Result ### # Time: Fri Dec 28 10:36:04 2007 host_name=localhost check_type=0 check_options=0 scheduled_check=1 reschedule_check=1 latency=0.733000 start_time=1198838164.733798 I'm wondering if it's a problem with the child process reporting these back to the parent nagios process, but I don't know how I can debug that as the child process does not seem to log anywhere or provide debug... for example, where do the pipes actually live? I've also read some threads about pipe sizes causing similar problems, but that would seem only to apply in the case of lots of services. Any advice appreciated.
