running .pl script thru nrpe

[Bolduc, Blair]

We can run it fine from the command line as either root or nagios.
The string returns okay, its just that the integers are always -1.

Is there some issue between nrpe (which is c) and perl? Its confusing why
only the numbers don't return properly.

when you run it on the command line, are you running it as the nagios
user?
