[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#425312: nagios-plugins-basic: ssh_disk config fails to be interpreted properly

[Kyle Gordon]

Package: nagios-plugins-basic
Version: 1.4.5-2.1
Severity: important

By default, the ssh_disk configuration has the following command line...

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_by_ssh -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C
'/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p $ARG3$'

This creates the following error when trying to check a remote system...

[1179694002] SERVICE ALERT: tagboard;/dev/hda1 Free
Space;UNKNOWN;SOFT;1;Could not open pipe: /usr/bin/ssh 172.24.32.1
'/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 5% -c 3% -p "/dev/hda1"'

Changing the single quotes to be double quotes in the config resolves
this problem.

Regards

Kyle
