(new_mini_epn has readline support so command line history and edit work ok.) eg [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./new_mini_epn plugin command line: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_rootport -H 10.0.254.168 embedded perl plugin return code and output was: 0 & Ok.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ This is repeatedly running a Perl plugin check_rootport (simulating reuse by ePN). It will display probs either 1 at compile time (ePN has some funny limits. See the mod_perl docco for more info). 2 at run time. Good luck.
