NIS and DHCP

[Matthias Eichler]

Some comment and question to check_dhcp. The DHCP plugin just
runs under root, otherwise it brings some error that it can't
bind to the network interface.

But Nagios is usually not running as root...did you wrote some
wrapper with su -c "./check_dhcp" or do you have some other
solution?!?

Thanks,

Matthias
