[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#528262: Bug#528262: Bug#528262: nagios-plugins-standard: Error in command_line in nt.cfg causes errors

[Soren Stoutner]

Jan,

The error message produced in Nagios is "wrong -l argument".  I don't 
know why it doesn't work.  It should work.  But it doesn't.  Through 
experimentation I discovered that removing the ' marks fixed the problem.

The error occurs with the following configurations:

command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -p 12489 -v $ARG1$ $ARG2$


define service{
	use			generic-service
	host_name		winserver
	service_description	C:\ Drive Space
	check_command		check_nt!USEDDISKSPACE!-l c -w 80 -c 90
	}
