Invalid Name, State property.' The check had been running successfully for several weeks now as well as other nrpe checks on this server. This problem just started within the past 24 hours. This is the only check having this problem. Have any of you experienced this same situation? I am new to Nagios and am not a windows admin so I apologize in advance if I have not used the proper terminology. Thanks, Denis </BODY> </HTML>
