Grappling with check_by_ssh problems. Long and boring.

[Stanley Hopcroft]

Dear Gentlemen,

I am writing to thank you for your encouraging and helpful remarks.

This may indeed be another instance of the category of problem 'works on 
Linux but doesn't on other ...'.

1 Nag Host (on which check_by_ssh runs): 
FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE

tsitc> ssh -v
OpenSSH_3.4p1 FreeBSD-20020702, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 
0x0090607f

tsitc> /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -V
check_by_ssh (nagios-plugins 1.3.0-beta2) 1.9


2 Bad Remote host:
AIX 4.3
$ ssh -v
OpenSSH_2.9.9p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090581f

FWIW, it is only AIX that is causeing me grief. check_by_ssh to Solaris 
(different checks: not run by sudo) runs Ok.

3 Good Remote host:
zeus$ uname -a
SunOS zeus 5.7 Generic_106541-14 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine

zeus$ ssh -v
SSH Version 1.2.30 [sparc-sun-solaris2.7], protocol version 1.5.

Yours sincerely,

'...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the
continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'

from Meditation 17, J Donne.
