problem w/ check_log2.pl

[Emmett Hogan]

Hi Folks,

I am trying to use check_log2.pl via check_by_ssh to check for either 
"WARNING" or "NOTICE"...however, if I use the command:

check_by_ssh -l nagios -i nagios_key -H hostname -C 
'/opt/nagios/libexec/check_log2.pl -l /var/adm/messages -s 
/var/tmp/message.nagios-seek -p "WARNING|NOTICE"'

It is treating the "|" as a unix pipe and not a regular expression 
character.  I have tried every method of "escaping" the character, but 
have had no luck. 

With all of the folks using check_log2.pl, I am sure someone has run 
into this before....at least I hope so.

Does anyone know of a solution?  (Maybe redefining the "or" character 
for a PERL regular expression?)
