I am currently using NC_NET with Nagios to monitor 700+ checks. In order
to check mssql services, I use single quotes and double the $ sign
Example:

[Nagios-users] Using $ in password
Dear All,
I have a simple question. What should I do to include the character $ as
one
of the password characters in the check command?
Here are some required information:
1- OS FC 5
2- kernel 2.6.18-1
3- Nagios version 2.5
4- The command definition
# 'check_httpp' command definition
define command{
command_namecheck_httpp
command_line$USER1$/check_http -p $ARG1$ -I $ARG2$ -t 120 -a
$ARG3$
}
5- The service configuration
define service{
use generic-service
host_name
service_description YYY
contact_groups ZZZ
check_command check_httpp!61002!192.168.1.4!:33$77
}
When I execute the command manually it works.
Any help will be much appreciated
Regards
