NIS check?

[Nelson, Ben]

After trading a couple of emails with Will Melick, it appears that the
current version (beta) of check_rpc may have a bug.
 
No matter what host addresss you give the plugin, it returns an 'OK' status.
For example:
 
$ ./check_rpc -H 999.999.999.99 -C ypbind
OK: RPC program ypbind udp running
 
This bug appears to have been introduced between version 1.2.9-4 and
1.3.0-beta2 of nagios-plugins.  I still had a
copy of check_rpc from 1.2.9-4 laying around and it returns an error when
invoked as above.

Use the check_rpc plugin........ 
>From my commands.cfg file: 
define command{ 
        command_name    check_ypserv 
        command_line    $USER1$/check_rpc -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C ypserv 
} 
define command{ 
        command_name    check_yppasswdd 
        command_line    $USER1$/check_rpc -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C yppasswdd 
} 
define command{ 
        command_name    check_ypbind 
        command_line    $USER1$/check_rpc -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C ypbind 
}

Does anyone have a favorite way to check NIS services? 

Thanks much,
