Status display errors

[Aaron Carr]

I'll give that a try on Monday.

I don't *think* that's it however.  Every time I ran the commands from
the command line on the Nagios server, the output was exactly as
expected.

I didn't check the $? values though, so I will do that and post the results.

Thanks.
