[Nagiosplug-help] check_sensors proper usage

[Kevin Hanser]

Hello, 
I'm wondering if anyone can give me some pointers on using the
check_sensors plugin.  When I run check_sensors -h, it doesn't really
tell me much about any cmd-line options I might need to pass (if any).
If I run check_sensors -H localhost, I get "SENSOR CRITIAL - Sensor
alarm detected!", but it doesn't tell me what sensor, or what the alarm
is... 

I'm monitoring my sensors using gkrellm, and it shows me some values for
my system and cpu temp, as does the "sensors" command: 
 via686a-isa-0c00
Adapter: ISA adapter
CPU core:  +1.84 V  (min =  +3.10 V, max =  +3.10 V)   ALARM
+2.5V:     +0.27 V  (min =  +2.37 V, max =  +2.62 V)   ALARM
I/O:       +3.33 V  (min =  +3.14 V, max =  +3.47 V)
+5V:       +3.25 V  (min =  +4.51 V, max =  +5.50 V)   ALARM
+12V:     +15.54 V  (min = +10.81 V, max = +13.20 V)   ALARM
CPU Fan:     0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM, div = 2)
P/S Fan:     0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM, div = 2)
SYS Temp:  +31.5 C  (high =   +45 C, hyst =   +40 C)
CPU Temp:  +23.9 C  (high =   +60 C, hyst =   +55 C)
SBr Temp:  +25.8 C  (high =   +65 C, hyst =   +60 C)

I see that I have some "ALARM"'s on some of the voltages (not sure
why... that's interesting...), but I'm really not interested in checking
those sensors, what I really want is to check the CPU and SYS Temp...

how can I specify what sensor to check w/check_sensors?

Running 2.0b4 on Gentoo linux, BTW.

thx!
