NRPE Completely stumped

[John Acar]

Hi Andreas,

If you do not specify a disk to check, it will check all available disks. 
The problem was a rights issue with check_disk on the remote box.

chmod 755 check_disk fixed it.  All is well.

A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but a true friend will
be sitting next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun!"
