When I typed python on the command line it drops my into the python interpreter.
Regardless, I went ahead and specified it in the command: command[loadscript_check_error_log]=/usr/local/bin/python /home/jesterj/report_loadscript_error_log.py now when i run the check_nrpe command from the server I get "could not run command". $ sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 10.10.10.45 -c loadscript_check_error_log Could not run command Thoughts?
