Running a plugin at specific times

[Tech Support]

Hello;

    I am fairly new to Nagios, and this is my first project using it. What I
would like to do is run a plugin at specific times of the day. This
particular plugin is pretty intrusive, so I would like to run it only at
7:00am and 7:00pm daily. Is there an easy way of doing this? I'm thinking
that I can run the script out of CRON, then passively send the data to
Nagios via its command pipe, but I'm not sure if that's the best way to go.


Thanks;

John
