class=373191222-28022007>I don't know if this error is being produced by
check_nrpe, by nsclient++, or by Nagios itself. Certainly on our system,
Nagios 1.4 does not check commands for illegal characters, and check_nrpe
2.5.2 does not either, so my guess is that nsclient++ is doing it. Make
sure you have your parameters quoted and check nsclient++ for definitions of
illegal characters...</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
