Getting this error

I am also getting the error. I am running RedHat 8, Fedora core2 and
Fedora core3. The errors occurs on Fedora core 3 only. I get the same
error on all Fedora core3 boxes. 
I have downloaded and compiled the plug-in 1.3 and 1.4. This did not
resolve the error.

Running the command locally
 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -c 1:1  -C crond
System call sent warnings to stderr
OK - 1 processes running with command name crond

This looks like it's from the check_proc plugin that is running on
64.182.35.81.  Do you get the error when it's run locally?  

If you are out of swap, that could cause this.  

If you can reproduce the error by running check_procs locally, you can
run
strace "<check_procs with args that cause problem>".  Strace shows
system
calls and should tell which one is complaining.  

Post output here and we'll see what kind of suggestions we can make.

Regards,
