NRPE problems.. blank arugments

[Lyle Scott III]

Hey there.. i am having a problem with my NRPE plugins when using argument
maros.  Am i making a syntax error or what?  I have looked at it too long
today to tell :)

I have confirmed the package was configured with command args enabled and I
did turn on dont_blam_nrpe.

As stated later, the plugin and nrpe work great if i take out the argument
macro and do a static command and supply the plugin with static arguments
via nrpe_local.cfg.

I have copied snippets of relevant files:


############  SERVER  ##############
(host config)
check_command           check_nrpe!check_smartmon!/dev/hda

############ CLIENT ################

(/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
dont_blame_nrpe=1  (also have arguments compiled in)

(/etc/nagios/nrpe_local.cfg)
command[check_smartmon]=/usr/bin/sudo /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_smartmon
-d $ARG1$
###the following works if i edit $ARG1$ argument out the host config
###command[check_smartmon]=/usr/bin/sudo
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_smartmon -d /dev/hda

(/var/log/syslog)

thanks much!
