That would be (partly) my plugin, obtained from Nagiosexchange.org, most likely :) >> i use the command: >> $USER1$/check_rrdtraf -f ./var/www/html/cfg/$HOSTADRESS$_1.rrd -l >> b -vv - >> c $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ > > You meant $HOSTADDRESS$ here, right?

The -vv is an issue, although there could be a couple of others (see previous comments about the formating of the file string in the command). As that flag gives a lot of debugging output, and nagios only displays the first line of output, I wouldn't expect it to show the traffic values with this switch in there. What I would expect nagios to be showing is something along the lines of "Using RRD File: / var/www/html/cfg/$HOSTADRESS$_1.rrd" (I think that's the first line of debugging output I put in there), with $HOSTADDRESS$ replaced with the applicable value. Try without the -vv and see what happens. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 ----------------------------------------------- > > > -- > Marc > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.
