[Nagiosplug-help] Creating a plugin

[Robert Marxreiter]

Hello Claudio,

you'll have to post your command definition, too.

By the way - are you seriously using check_nt for the host check? You
should use service groups if you want to group service checks. Otherwise
you will get confused which service runs on which host.

Regards
- Robert
