Solaris 10 check_procs

[Brandon Munger]

Bill,

Ok that makes sense.  The compiler is 32 bit.  This is the output I get is:

-bash-3.00# ./check_procs -vv
CMD: /export/home/bmunger/downloads/nagios/libexec/pst3
Unable to read output

I have since found a different solution on nagiosexchange.org called
check_procs2 which is a perl script.  This seems to work fine for me.

Thanks!

Brandon
