Greg,
Try enabling the following:
;# COMMAND ALLOW NASTY META CHARS
; This option determines whether or not the NRPE daemon will allow clients to
specify nasty (as in |`&><'"\[]{}) characters in arguments.
allow_nasty_meta_chars=1
and sending \\ instead of just \ when you send the NRPE command
The following I use to check the size of exch database file sizes:
check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -c CheckFileSize -a MaxWarn=10M MaxCrit=50M
File:"pub1.edb"="S:\\EXCHSRVR\\mdbdata\\pub1.edb" ShowAll

Yep, kind of what I expected. When I put
check_file_age=cscript.exe scripts\check_file_age.vbs -f
"c:\temp\test.txt" -w 1 -c 3
in the NCS.ini file and then run ./check_nrpe -H hostname -c check_file_age
from the linux prompt I get the appropriate respons. In this case,
"WARNING". When I replace the NCS.ini entry with
check_file_age=cscript.exe scripts\check_file_age.vbs $ARG1$
and then run
./check_nrpe -H computername -c check_file_age -f "c:\temp\test.txt" -w 1
-c 3
It returns nothing. Just getting the "\" character involved me using the
extended ascii code and on my keyboard the @ and " (quote) files were
swapped. Obviously the argument string is not arriving correctly at the
client machine.

for testing, just replace that with:
check_file_age=cscript.exe scripts\check_file_age.vbs -f
"c:\temp\test.txt" -w 1 -c 3
and reload the nsclient service in the windows server. From the
opsview server, in order to test quickly without having to reload the
web interface, what I do is in a command prompt (shell) run the plugin
by hand. I assume you have a windows workstation, so you start putty
and login the opsview server. You go to the plugins directory:
# cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec
# ./check_nrpe -H hostname -c check_file_age
the swith -H is for the host, and -c for the remote command to be
executed on that host. The command name must exactly be the same you
defined in nsc.ini. If all goes well then you go to the next step
which is define the check in the web ui of opsview.
