check_load gone crazy

[Mike Chesnut]

> What transport mechanism are you using to run check_load on the remote systems? It is not 'network aware' and so the check_load binary must be installed on each remote machine and run on that machine via some transport (check_nrpe, check_by_ssh, etc). It seems to me that you are not running it on the remote machines but are instead monitoring the load of your nagios machine multiple times. Can you show a couple example service{} and corresponding command{} definitions if you are unsure?

Wow, good catch.  With the standard disclaimers about inheriting this 
Nagios configuration aside, it was indeed using the local check_load (on 
the Nagios server) and trying to run it against every single host being 
monitored, which obviously isn't what I wanted.

I'm changing it to run check_load via check_nrpe now.  Thanks for the help!
