Yes, that's an option, but one you were not using correctly when you posted. That's why I explained through example how to create the command line that nagios is really running and how to get to where you were using the service definition args the way you were expecting. Re- read that message. > I have also modified the command definition as > > $USER1$/check_mysql -H $ARG1$ -u $ARG2$ -p $ARG2$ Looks wrong to me (-p). Should be $ARG3$.

Expand the command_line as I did in my original e-mail and you'll understand why. I'm not going to hand it to you any more than I have already; you need to figure it out. It's important that you learn this. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/macros.html will help. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
