Ok, I got the solution, just the ' was missing. Now it looks like: check_nt!SERVICESTATE! -l 'service$$DB' and works :)
Thanks to all. -----Original Message----- From: DE/HAM Hoppe, Leif [mailto:leif.ho...@hartrodt.com] Sent: Donnerstag, 8.

When I try to check "service$$DB" in nagios now, I get: "Status Information: service: Not found" So he ignores everything after and including the $.

Note that he's running this from the shell directly. Nagios isn't doing anything to it at all; no macro parsing etc... To prevent nagios from trying to parse the $ as the start of a macro from within the command{} definition, use $$ ('service$$DB' or 'MSSQL$$BKUPEXEC' in your case). -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
