Problem: Perfmon counter gives wrong results while using check_nt

[M V Ajay (vMoksha)]

Dear All:

I am having problem in monitoring a particular windows perfmon counter. All
other counter gives proper results. I am using check_nt (check_nt
(nagios-plugins 1.4.3) 1.39) with Nagios Agent running on WIndows NT 4.0,
Exchange 5.5

Below is the Microsoft Exchange counter:
Object: MSExchangeMTA Connections
Counter: Queue Length
Instance: (INTERNET MAIL CONNECTOR (MAILHOST001))

When I run the plugin command mannualy I get,

./check_nt -s nagiosagentpassword -H mailhost001 -v COUNTER -l
"\MSExchangeMTA Connections(INTERNET MAIL CONNECTOR (MAILHOST001))\Queue
Length"
0.000000

and output is always 0.
But if I use windows perfmon, I get the proper results.

Any idea why this is not working?

Regards,
Ajay
