A nrpe (check_oracle) command returns garbage

[Rennie, Steve]

Hi List

I have a problem where a check_nrpe returns garbage on nagios server. 

The command is a "check_oracle" defined in nrpe.cfg 

- command[check_oracle]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_oracle --db l919

on the local Solaris host it works normally but run from nagios server
it returns garbage. Other check_nrpe commands (ie check_users etc) run
normally on server and return correct output. 

The server is running RHEL5.3 and client is Solaris 9. I am using nrpe
1.8 on client and server. Tried later vers but this seemed to
incompatible with the Solaris client. I have swapped the
libexec/check_oracle script but this looks correct and it does work when
run locally.

I have enabled debug on nrpe.cfg but nothing useful produced in log.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Thanks
