Another NSClient question

[Frater, Greg J]

Have you tested from the command line?  Does your password use any
special characters?  I don't know if this matters but it could cause the
check command some grief interpreting your command syntax.

I restarted the server and it still gives me an "No output".  Here is
some info is this helps in any way.  Thanks
# NSClient -- Server

-p xxxxx -v MEMUSE -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
command[check_nt_fileage_Server]=$USER1$/check_nt -H 127.0.0.1  -P 1248
-p xxxxx -v FILEAGE ~Vl $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$
command[check_nt_pagingfile_Server]=$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -P
1248 -p xxxxx -v COUNTER -l " \\Paging <file://\\Paging>
File(_Total)\\% Usage","Paging File usage is %.2f %%" -w $ARG1$ -c
$ARG2$

Here is my commands.  Note 127.0.0.1 is not actually IP just replacing
the actual and "xxxxx" is masking the password.

The registry key holds the password string.  You then use (as you
speculated) the -p option on the check_nt command to send the password
to the nt box.  When I did it I had to restart the server when after
adding the password to my servers.  Restarting the nsclient nt service
did not work.

I understand that I can put the key in the registry under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> NSClient -> Params -> password, and
modify it to suit whichever password I choose.  But I am a little
confused about what config file I store this password in on the Nagios
box.  I was thinking I used the "-p" flag in the commands configuration
file, then the password following.  But I must be forgetting something.
Any ideas would be great, thanks guys
 
Justin
