<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=207143512-23052006>I am wondering if

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=207143512-23052006>I have a user
called nagios under which nagios runs and using "su nagios" (on Debian) I can
run the script and it notifies just fine. So I am concluding that it is not a
security related issue nor a script execution error since it works
correctly. However, when running the Perl script in the Embedded Perl
environment, something happens (which is not logged) which causes the script
to not execute as desired.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
