[Nagiosplug-help] Question with using the Check_Disk plugin on /var partition

[Medaugh, Scott]

I am getting some strange results from the check_disk plugin in Nagios.
The first code section contains my command as set in Nagios.  If I run
the command independent of Nagios, I get what appears to be the correct
info (see second code section).  If the plugin is run in Nagios, I get
the result with the partition name but the numbers are not correct for
the space (see third code section).

If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.

Code:

define command{
        command_name    check_remote_disk
        command_line    $USER1$/check_by_ssh -l nagios -H $HOSTADDRESS$
-C "$USER1$/check_disk -p $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -w $ARG3$"

Called by:

 service_description             DISK - /var
        check_command                   check_remote_disk!/var!10!25





Code:

ssh -l nagios nst-scriptsource-2 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -p
/var -w 30 -c 35
DISK OK - free space: /var 680182 MB (70%);|
/var=288499MB;968651;968646;0;968681






The below is taken from my grapher log and matches what appears on my
webpage for space.
Code:

DISK - ROOT     DISK OK - free space: / 385903 MB (94%): 
DISK - /var     DISK OK - free space: /var 914360 MB (94%):
