Attached is the script. From the machine that the script resides, all is ok. NRPE config: command[check_log_test]=/usr/local/nagios/check_logs rel1.repost.Aug2604 Output from machine running NRPE: # /usr/local/nagios/check_logs rel1.repost.Aug2604 *** Repost of all pending candidates started at 10:00:01 PM *** : *** Repost finished at 10:27:49 PM *** # Good. Output from machine running Nagios: # /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -p 5666 -c check_log_test File does not exist. Not good. The standard checks work all good, so I know there is nothing wrong with nagios / NRPE. I had a look at the stock check_log, but could not find any help there. Any help appreciated. -- Martinus Nel System Administrator Scarce Skills Ltd. http://www.scarceskills.com Tel: +44 (0) 1633 225461 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER This e-mail message and any attachments are confidential and may also be a privileged communication.
