So check_http!-H site.com -t 5 -a admin:password
should be
check_http!-H site.com!-t 5!-a admin:password?

Jerad,
I didn't understand that either. That's why I customized the the
check_http
command definition. That way (in my previous example) you can have your
http
checks from any Nagios client. Usefull for instance for off-site checks.
Regarding the -a switch. The -a $ARG1$ (or whatever) should be in your
command
definition. And your parms as you 'feed' them to the command in your
service
definition seperated with "!".
Regards,
Gerard.
