Some more info: I managed to run check_mysql from a shell script that actually runs the plugin under "strace", which records every system call. From the command line, check_mysql (via the MySQL library routines) looks for /etc/my.cnf, /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf, and /home/jgoltz/.my.cnf, as it should. However, the plugin as run by Nagios looks for /etc/my.cnf, /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf, and "~/.my.cnf" -- in other words, it treats "~" as a literal file name instead of expanding it to the home directory of user "nagios". I'm not sure what to make of that yet, but it seemed worth mentioning. -- Jim Goltz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Contractor, Lockheed Martin National Library of Medicine ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
