check_* -w and -c switches

[Geoff Rispin]

Sorry,  my mistake....

the -l command is part of the nagios-statd plugin.

I do?  Why?  I can do everything I want to do without resorting to a
 -l option. 

OK, I'll take your word for it that -l opens the gates to paradise
and gives me 24 virgins and all sorts of other goodies.  Hold on
a second... 

  /usr/lib/nagios/check_procs -h 

How strange!  Nothing whatsoever about a -l option. 

This is bizarre.  The answer I gave pointed the guy at how to do what
he wanted to do and I know it was a valid answer because I use it myself.
The answer you gave looks like a crock of unmentionable according to
the primitive help from check_procs. 

Maybe, if I dig in the source, I'll see that -l is a crock of gold at
the end of the rainbow.  However, the answer I gave does not involve
digging into the source and is known (by me) to work. 

Please explain why you believe that -l is the answer.
