Free disk space : Invalid drive

For what it's worth, the problem persists while using NC_Net instead of
NSClient.  Again, the command line works but the Nagios web site shows
the error.

Thought I'd ping the group one more time to see if anyone can help.

Thanks,
Jesse

Thanks for the suggestion, Hendrik.

I stopped the nagios service and verified that there were no additional
processes running.  Then I restarted it and after the next check the
problem was still there.

Hi Jesse,

did you check for a second running nagios process?

Your mentioned "magic" to see different result on the website as on the
cli, occurs often if there is a second (or third) nagios process which
runs with older configurations...

Try to shutdown your nagios on the normal way: f.e.

/etc/init.d/nagios stop
wait 10 up to 20 seconds and do a
"ps aux | grep nagios"
Do you see more nagios procs? --> Kill them
After this start your nagios and wait for new status Informations.

Regards
Hendrik
