All,

        Is it possible to negate the regular expression used in
--ereg-argument-array with check_procs?

        We want to ignore one of the processes running on a machine but when we
try to use negative lookahead the regex is not processed correctly
because it reads ! as a bash internal command:

./check_procs -w 25 -c 35 -m CPU -v --ereg-argument-array=^((?!john).)*$
./check_procs -w 25 -c 35 -m CPU -v --ereg-argument-array=^((?john
--show passwd.ldap).)*$
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

        And the Nagios web output shows: NRPE: Unable to read output

        Does anyone have any suggestions?

Best Regards,
Camron
