Yes, that was a typo in the last paragraph... I have the only
'non-commented' line listed in my original request.  Here it is again:

$USER1$=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins

Perhaps it was a typo but you mention that you are trying to define $USER$1
and it should be $USER1$.  Please post a snippet of the resource.cfg so we
can have a look-see.

Later,

Hello,

   I have installed nagios and associated plugins, and have come across a
problem that I cannot resolve through searching the archives, or anywhere in
the manual.  When running ./nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg, I
receive an error to the effect of 'Error: unexpected token or statement in
file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/resource.cfg'  on line 24.  Well, line 24
defines the $USER1$ macro which is defined as:
$USER1$=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins 

I mv'd the resource.cfg-sample file to my config directory as resource.cfg,
and only changed the location of the plugin directory ($USER$1) within it.
Is there something that I am overlooking here?  Thanks for any help..
