Check in the contrib section. Manual hacking might be required. You will 
need the freetds libs and a bunch of perl modules or the tsql binary, 
but you should find at least two plugins that can check MSSQL (it 
shamelessly uses the tabular datastream protocol, so you will be able to 
check sybase servers with the same plugin).

I've never heard of a Progress database server before. Sounds like 
ripoff of the well-known and much-loved Postgres if you ask me. 
check_pgsql is included in the standard plugin distribution. You need 
the postgres development files (headers) as well as the shared (or 
static) client libraries installed for the plugin distribution to find it.
