Problem resolved. Apparently Nagios does not define the environment variable HOME for its plugins, so "~" does not get expanded to the home directory for user "nagios". I changed the command definition for check_mysql: was: $USER1$/check_mysql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ now: env HOME=/var/log/nagios $USER1$/check_mysql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ The plugin is able to connect successfully now. -- Jim Goltz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Contractor, Lockheed Martin National Library of Medicine ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
