check_multisvc.pl

[Jack Coates]

As suggested here
(http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=1347791&forum_id=1873), I've written a wrapper to check several checks at once and return an aggregate score. It uses a config file to avoid passing quoted arguments in services.cfg, which won't work according to the plugin-developer documentation.

I've tried to follow the developer documentation as closely as possible,
but please let me know if you see an issue.

thanks,

# Keep execution time in mind -- if the check_multisvc plugin takes more than

# One group of checks per config file only. You can create multiple config 
# files and call them on the command line using the -F flag.
