Anyone using "check_citrix" with Nagios? Help.

[Stanley Hopcroft]

Dear Folks,

Some person who should have held his tongue wrote with some advice about 
creating a wrapper to log the results of a plugin that is running Ok 
from the command line but returns 'No output!' under Nagios.

> 3.2 create a script called check_citrix containing something like

> pc09011> cat x
> #!/bin/sh

> exec > BAD_PLUGIN_whining 2>&1

*** WRONG
> _path_to_nagios_/libexec/check_citrix_WRAPPED $ <at> 
*** /WRONG

> # BAD_PLUGIN_whining is the name of a file in a path writable by
> # Nag. It will contain any output - including compiler warnings
> # sent to stdout or stderr.

> Warning ! I haven't tried this with my Nag setup. It will probably

The last line in the wrapper script aboive is incorrect. It should be

exec  __path_to_nagios_/libexec/check_citrix_WRAPPED $@

'check_citrix_WRAPPED' is the name of the faulty plugin; this script 
will be called check_citrix.

Yours sincerely.
