Hi Karl, Actually, I have run it as nagios (as well as root) also and I am getting the correct responses at the command line. I often over look that sort of thing, so thanks for looking out for me. To be honest, I was running it as root for some time and then starting reading posts about running it as nagios.
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Robert -----Original Message----- From: Karl Katzke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2007 4:17 PM To: [email protected]; Robert Ferguson Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] check_perc.pl Robert - Let me guess, you're running it as root... ? Remember that the Nagios user is very unprivileged, and if you're having a problem with it running things, you may need to wrap the command so that it can run as a privileged user. -Karl --- Karl Katzke Systems Analyst II TAMU - RGS >>> "Robert Ferguson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/19/2007 3:09 PM >>> Good Afternoon I am having an issue with this plugin. Maybe one of you can help. I am receiving a null return when nagios runs this command, however when running on command line, it returns just fine. Here is my command definition and define service: # 'check_perc.pl' command definition define command{ command_name check_perc command_line $USER1$/check_perc.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $ARG1$ -D $ARG2$ -T $ARG3$ } define service{ use local-service host_name HostNameHere service_description Check Perc check_command check_perc!public!phys!am } As I said, I have been successful in running this at the command line both as root and as nagiosuser. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
