[Nagiosplug-help] how can i check root partition space of aremotehost

[Ralph.Grothe at itdz-berlin.de]

I am not quite sure,
but I think the check commands in nrpe.cfg must refer to actual
executables on the nrpe host, i.e. where the nrpe daemon is
running
stand-alone, or by (x)inetd, depending on your nrpe
configuration.
So if you do an

ls /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_local_disk

would most likely yield a "no such file or directory" error.

But doesn't your check_disk2 command definition, which looks ok,
satisfy your needs?

I think it would be helpful if you posted the command definition
for the check_disk from
the nrpe.cfg on your to be checked host.

I have made a little modification of the default configuration
file. i have copied "check_local_disk" command from the NAGIOS
host to the remote host's nrpe.cfg  -
