calling a java program from nagios

[Venugopal S]

Hi Marc,

The program that we have written uses HTTPUnit+Statemachine for web
crawling some websites.

What we do through this java code is to check whether the login action
on few websites is happening properly. If some login fails, we would
send an email to the mailing list.

Hope this is clear.
Please let me know if anything else is needed.

See the rest of my questions below. You have not yet stated your 
intent so we can't answer how to do it. Be _very_ clear about what 
you're trying to accomplish.
