check_by_ssh

[jmarquart at planalytics.com]

Hmm that answers a problem i have had - which convinced me to run check_by_ssh
form the netsaint plugin package.

simple usage help (i.e. check_by_ssh w/out any args) - says that you can omit
the -C - that the -C is only needed to run passive mode - multiple checks.

with the netsaint plugins - it functions correctly that way as well

so - it the nagios plugin wrong when it says:

check_by_ssh [-f] [-t timeout] [--i identity] [-l user] -H <host> <command> ...

or is it just that without the -C - it has trouble parsing the command?


also - does anyone have an instance of using multiple -C for passive mode?
(and is it a passive check? or some other passive mode?

Seems you're missing the "-C" argument.  That cmd should read:

./check_by_ssh -H anotherBox -C '/home/nagios/check_ping -L www.yahoo.com 25
50 200 1000'
