Being that there's not a whole lot of official documentation for nrpe_nt itself is there something to this affect that I have to do on the Windows machine? Run the check as a specific user? I've tried running the nrpe_nt service as every user on the windows box to no avail. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm thinking it's some sort of permissions or "run as this specific user so as to see network drives" issue, but my Windows knowledge in terms of services, access rights, etc. is limited.

Also, are your drives mapped as persistent, as I'm not positive the user running the script would see them either way if not "logged on interactively". Can you use UNC pathing instead? Ie \\machine\share$ ? That should work if the user has rights, and you won't have to deal with the mapped drive issue(s) . HTH, Regards, jamie </DIV></BODY></HTML>
