my question to the list is: how do you quote the command so it can be run by the check_by_ssh_plugin?
"crit|warn|info|auth"'
I once had to do this, except using NRPE which forbids those
characters. I had eventually had to hack in a Base64 decoder in
the plugin and put the encoded string in the Nagios config.
Ugly.

sometimes is just pays to know how your shell works!

this works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ /usr/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -H ma01 -C '/opt/nagios/libexec/check_log2.pl -l /var/log/messages -s /tmp/seekfile -p crit\|warn\|info\|auth'
(3): Mar 24 16:16:43 ma01 sshd[9677]: [ID 800047 auth.info] Accepted publickey 
for nagios from 10.121.121.250 port 32945 ssh2

but, not as you would hope so.  if you rerun it two seconds later, it reports 
the same error. not the desired/correct result i was looking for.

has anyone ever got check_log2.pl to "correctly" look for multiple strings 
without running the script mutiple times?

regards,



_Terry
