Obsessive Compulsive Problem

[Russell Scibetti]

First thing to check...file permissions for the submit_check_result 
script.  I had a problem with that once.  Make sure that whatever used 
Nagios runs as can execute that script.  Then double check the command 
you have defined in your misccommands.cfg file to make sure the syntax 
is good (suggestion:  email it to the list).  Rememver to put quotes 
around any $MACRO$ variable that could have spaces in them.

Let us know if that helps at all.
