incoorect command line arguments supplied

[donavan nelson]

I have version 1.5 of check_nrpe....and my check_nrpe does work from the
command line.  My mistake.  I must of had a configuration error....ekkk,
sorry.  I can even prove it :D

[donavan at shzaam libexec]$ ./check_nrpe 192.168.94.253 -p 7777 -c check_public
Traffic ok - Ave. In = 1.2 KB/s, Ave. Out = 861.0 B/s

When you run

./check_nrpe -H 176.1.111.89 -p 5666 -c check_disk1

what happens?  Below, it looks like you have command line parameters for the
check_disk1 command, this would be incorrect.  These go in the nrpe config
file on the sun box.
