Temptrax returns incorect data

[Shane_Seidel at gwf.com.au]

I am using a Temptrax 2000 digital thermometer and seeing incorrect data
reported by Nagios.

When run from the command line output seems correct.
 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_temptrax -w 25 -c 30 -S 2
Temp Ok: Sensor 2 = 21.6 Deg. C
 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_temptrax -w 25 -c 30 -S 1
Temp Warning: Sensor 1 = 25.1 Deg. C

But Nagios reports:-
Server Room Temp OK 13-09-2002 08:56:02 7d 18h 47m 6s 1/3 Temp Ok: Sensor 1 =
-17.8 Deg. C

Server Room Temp 2 OK 13-09-2002 08:57:37 7d 15h 22m 16s 1/3 Temp Ok: Sensor 2 =
-17.8 Deg. C

These values are still reported by Nagios even when the device is detatched from
the server.

I have been informed by the helpful people at Temptrax that a value of 0 deg
farenheight is being reported.

checkcommands.cfg is as follows:-
command[check_temptrax]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_temptrax -w 25 -c 30 -S
1 -f 0
command[check_temptrax2]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/./check_temptrax -w 25 -c 30
-S 2 -f 0

service.cfg is as follows:-
service[nms-GWFIS-Monitoring-System]=Server Room
Temp;0;24x7;3;5;1;gwfis-admins;240;24x7;1;1;0;;check_temptrax
service[nms-GWFIS-Monitoring-System]=Server Room Temp
2;0;24x7;3;5;1;gwfis-admins;240;24x7;1;1;0;;check_temptrax2

Nagios is v 1.0b5 on Red Hat 7.3 and compiled with default options and the
latest plugin / binary

Can someone shed some light as to why this is occuring and how to fix the
problem?

Thank
Shane
