Check_procs plugin bug

Greetings,

The check_procs plugin did not run correctly on my Fedora Core 3 host, it
never returned an "OK" status.
I fixed the problem by editing config.h and changing the ps command
(removing the - operator).

FYI,
	Yoav




Details:
-----------
check_procs  -v
STDERR: Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See
/usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.3/FAQ
System call sent warnings to stderr
PROCS WARNING: 87 processes


In config.h :
-----------------
Changed from:
/* Verbatim command to execute for ps in check_procs */
#define PS_COMMAND "/bin/ps axwo 'stat uid ppid vsz rss pcpu comm args'"
Changed to:
/* Verbatim command to execute for ps in check_procs */
#define PS_COMMAND "/bin/ps -axwo 'stat uid ppid vsz rss pcpu comm args'"
