plugin and a reported wrong state

Has anyone had any problems with plugins reporting the wrong state in 
nagios? 

I'm using the check_snmp plugin that, when run by hand reports:
  "SNMP OK - up(1) up(1) up(1) up(1)"

but when it is run by nagios I get:
  "SNMP WARNING - up(1) up(1) up(1) up(1)"

Of course when a device actually goes down I get: (which is fine)
  "SNMP CRITICAL - up(1) up(1) up(1) *down(2)*"


If you could give me a pointer on where I might be going wrong here, I 
would appreciate it.

Thanks,
-Jamin


P.S.
I am using Nagios ver. 1.0b5 on a standard redhat install.
And here is my command:

[root at mybox libexec]# ./check_snmp -H XXX.XXX.XXX.X -t 5 -C notpublic -o
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.1003,.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.4002,.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.4004,.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.4005
-D " " -s "up(1)" -s "up(1)" -s "up(1)" -s "up(1)"

SNMP OK - up(1) up(1) up(1) up(1)
