checking sun solaris disk space

[Carroll, Jim P [Contractor]]

Actually, you can specify either the device special file or the mount point.  (I personally find mount points more informative. ;)

But someone else brought up a valid point:  It could well be that Hrishy is executing it on the Nagios server, instead of the target host.  Hrishy, go back to www.nagios.org and take a look at NRPE; it's good for what ails you.
