Hi,

I am using Dag Wieers rpm nagios-plugins-1.4-2.2.el4.rf on el4.

There are a couple of problems I found, besides check_ping I have not 
found a bugreport.

check_ping:
[root at jupiter ~]# ./check_ping -H 127.0.0.1 -w 2,10% -c 5,20%
/bin/ping -n -U -w 10 -c 5 127.0.0.1
CRITICAL - Could not interpret output from ping command

There seems to be a bugreport from January.

check_dns:
This service is flapping very much.
[root at jupiter ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dns -H jupiter.awaro.com 
-s 192.168.200.1
DNS OK: 0,005 seconds response time jupiter.awaro.com hat 192.168.200.10 
zurückgegeben|time=0,005166s;;;0,000000
[root at jupiter ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dns -H jupiter.awaro.com 
-s 192.168.200.1
DNS WARNING - nslookup hat einen Fehler zurückgegeben

check_dig:
[root at jupiter nagios]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dig -H 
217.110.232.27 -l awaro.com
DNS WARNING - awaro.com.                86400   IN      A 
217.110.232.27

Why does this return a WARNING?

check_load:
[root at jupiter ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 1,1,1 -c 2,2,2
Warning threshold must be float or float triplet!

Usage: check_load -w WLOAD1,WLOAD5,WLOAD15 -c CLOAD1,CLOAD5,CLOAD15
[root at jupiter ~]# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 1 -c 2
OK - load average: 
0,02,0,01,0,00|load1=0,020000;1,000000;2,000000;0,000000load5=0,010000;1,000000;2,000000;0,000000load15=0,000000;1,000000;2,000000;0,000000 


Looks like it doesn't like a triplet?

Anybody has any idea about these problems?
I must admit it looks like we're having DNS problems but this is not the 
case, DNS works fine here and checked via 1.3 versions of the plugins is ok.

Thanks
Rainer
