using check_udp

[Julian_Grunnell at tdwh.co.uk]

Hi - has anyone successfully got check_udp working? I'm trying to use 
check_UDP (nagios-plugins 1.4.5) 1.80 but it keeps asking for a 
send/expect string and I've no idea what this is meant to be?

The target server is running syslog and the check so far has just been 
failing with this:

/opt/tools/libexec/check_udp -H 192.168.75.131 -p 514
With UDP checks, a send/expect string must be specified.


So I guess my question is simply what should the following be set to:

--send=STRING
--expect=STRING


Thanks - Julian.
