All other counter gives proper results. I am using check_nt (check_nt (nagios-plugins 1.4.3) 1.39) with Nagios Agent running on WIndows NT 4.0, Exchange 5.5 Below is the Microsoft Exchange counter: Object: MSExchangeMTA Connections Counter: Queue Length Instance: (INTERNET MAIL CONNECTOR (MAILHOST001)) When I run the plugin command mannualy I get, ./check_nt -s nagiosagentpassword -H mailhost001 -v COUNTER -l "\MSExchangeMTA Connections(INTERNET MAIL CONNECTOR (MAILHOST001))\Queue Length" 0.000000 and output is always 0. But if I use windows perfmon, I get the proper results. Any idea why this is not working?
