OK, tried that and here's what I got:

(icarus pts6) # /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H 192.168.0.3 -w 10,20% -c 60,100%
You've got a big problem buddy! You need more args!!!
Cannot open pipe: (icarus pts6) #

Interestingly enough check_ping --help shows this:
Usage:
 check_ping -H <host_address> -w <wrta>,<wpl>%% -c <crta>,<cpl>%%
       [-p packets] [-t timeout] [-L]

which says that 2 % signs are correct but that does not work either. I still
get the same error message.

Any other ideas??
