That worked. Also, I was able to get check_nt_MEMUSE working, too! :) That got the UPTIME to show, but when I try to run for CPULOAD, USEDDISKSPACE and SERVICESTATE it gives me an error saying "missing -L parameters". What is supposed to be supplied in the -L parameters of the command "./check_nt -H (ip address) -v USEDDISKSPACE -p 1250 -l" (also for cpuload and servicestate)??? Please advise.
