Oops..SNMP :: Not SMTP Shows Critical but chec ks OK

I had issues getting check_snmp to work also, even though
/usr/local/bin/snmpget was OK.  The resolution was to modify the command
definition in /usr/local/nagios/etc/checkcommands.cfg.  The original command
line read:

        command_line    /usr/local/bin/snmpget -m ALL -v 1 -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-c public $ARG1$

To get it to function properly, we had to change the line to read:

        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -C
public

Ugh, I hate it when I do that...
SNMP.

Sorry all.
Its monday and I have not had my coffee.  
Right now I guess I am about as sharp as a wet mouse.


Anyway, my snmp is giving a WARNING in Nagios, but when the plug is run by 
hand, everything is OK.   If you have any suggestions on how to track this 
bug, please let me know.
