Hi there, Your final command to invoke check_disk is "check_nrpe!check_disk!$_HOSTDISKWARNING$!$_HOSTDISKCRITICAL$". Passing this to check_nrpe will only get check_disk as an argument passed through to nrpe (since your check_nrpe-command is "$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p $_HOSTNRPE_PORT$ -c $ARG1$"). This in turn starts the check_disk-command via NRPE without any arguments (because '_HOSTDISKWARNING' and '_HOSTDISKCRITICAL' will get passed as ARG2 and ARG3 to check_nrpe) and in the end will cause check_disk only see a -w and -c option without thresholds. I think what needs to be done is pass the whole command with escaped bang-characters to check_nrpe like this: check_nrpe!check_disk\!$_HOSTDISKWARNING$\!$_HOSTDISKCRITICAL$ or maybe even enclose it in single or double quotes so it gets passed through as 1 argument to check_nrpe..... Not sure if this works like it is supposed to (haven't tested it myself), but qua syntax this seems more correct.

(blame_nrpe e ricompiling it's ok) On nrpe.cfg I defined this command: command[check_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ And on nagios server I've this definitions: </tt><a href=http://pastebin.com/7uZRcMk9><tt>http://pastebin.com/7uZRcMk9 Also enabling debug on nrpe deamon I see nothing during the command on messages: May 19 08:21:54 blabla xinetd[24320]: START: nrpe pid=24336 from=192.168.234.234 May 19 08:21:54 blabla nrpe[24336]: INFO: SSL/TLS initialized.
