(This should have stayed in the UserList since it is syntex specific that
may benifit other users for Windows Event Log monitoring via NC_NEt and
nagios)


Almost there syntex is a bit off,
the values after the interval are #of items followed by a comma delimited
list of the items
hence 0 means no items, so 1081 should be 1,1081

Thus try the command
./check_nt -H windowsmachine -p 1248 -v EVENTLOG -l
Application,Information,50,0,0,1,1081 -p 1248 -c 6

the -c and -w controle the Threshold for Warning/Critical/OK

Also try converting to an EVENTLOG_NEW
since it has some great optimizations that were not in EVENTLOG
check_nt --help=EVENTLOG_NEW
