        I believe that the 'Illegal metacharacter' error message is generated 
because your command contains a '>' character, which could potentially be 
someone trying to use shell redirect to break in to your machine.
         
        You will definitely need to escape or quote the > to prevent the shell 
interpreting it.
         
        I don't know if this error is being produced by check_nrpe, by 
nsclient++, or by Nagios itself.  Certainly on our system, Nagios 1.4 does not 
check commands for illegal characters, and check_nrpe 2.5.2 does not either, so 
my guess is that nsclient++ is doing it.  Make sure you have your parameters 
quoted and check nsclient++ for definitions of illegal characters...

                Hi,
                I'm trying to use nsclient++ on Windows Machines. Everything is 
working fine, instead of check_nrpe with checkEventLog :-(
                If I type:
                ./check_nrpe -H 172.16.101.13 -p 5666 -c checkeventlog -a 
file=System filter=in filter=all truncate=512 MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 
filter-eventType==info filter-generated=>10m
                 
                on my shell, I get no output. If I try ./check_nrpe -H 
172.16.101.13 -p 5666 -c checkeventlog -a file=System filter=in filter=all 
truncate=512 MaxWarn=1 MaxCrit=1 filter-eventType==info filter-generated=\>10m 
I'll get a error :Illegal Meta Character. Any ideas to this?
                Who is using nsclient++ with Eventlog Functionallity?
                 
                regards

                Christian Mies
