Install Problem

Unfortunately backing down Apache isn't really an option - but I don't
think that's the problem...

I'm getting errors in the checkcommands.cfg file - it doesn't like a
single command.  If I run them live in lib_exec it works fine.  I wonder
if the HOSTADDRESS and ARGS1 variables aren't getting set - I couldn't
find them in any config file - where are those?
