hi,

there really isn't any specific reason to use check_disk... i just saw
the plugin and thought that would be the thing to do.  i'll check out
check_snmp.  thanks!

Unless there's a compelling reason to use check_disk you might try the other effective options. I'm using check_nt which requires NSClient on Win2K boxes and all that's required on any UNIX variant in order to use check_snmp is a MIB on that box that provides disk info(which most - or at least all that I've seen - do).
