nrpe script

[jeremiah]

Problem resolved!

Even though i removed the sudo command from my commands file it was
uncommented and active in nrpg.cfg file.

Does this make sense to you? Seems like it could output a better error
message than "NRPE: Unable to read output"?!

#command_prefix=/usr/bin/sudo

Thanks for all yiour help!
