/usr/bin/esmtp/printf looks totally bogus. I've got a feeling someone's used a crappy regex to modify the config here. Besides that, I believe esmtp is an smtp *server*, so it's not supposed to be run from the command line. I'm not sure about that though, so I'll just assume you've read the manuals for esmtp and know what you're doing (well, one can always hope, right?). -- Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
