send_nsca

[Chris Stankaitis]

send_nsca doesn't require the "-H" Flag for hostname, you just define 
the hostname without the -H you also don't need '-p' unless your 
switching the nsca host to listen on a different port... 5667 is the 
default port for send_nsca

The following line should be all you need.

./send_nsca nagios.yourdomain -to 15 -c /etc/nsca.cfg
