There is no difference in ePN between v2 and v3 (or very little).

I haven't been following this thread but with respect you maybe mistaken
in blaming ePN for INC problems.

ePN is Perl no ifs or buts. If Perl can find the path to the plugin, and
Perl has not been changed since ePN was built, they should have the same
view of INC.

The standard plugins put utils.pm in a non standard Perl path, so most
of my plugins have an added

'use libs q</usr/lib/nagios/plugins>; ' #RHEL3

>From the OP point of view, if you have upgraded Perl since building ePN,
recompile ePN/Nagios so it can get the version (5.8.8) dependent paths.

Yours sincerely.
