send_nsca

[D Kavan]

Hey Chris,
I did mean send_nsca and thanks for responding.

When I run ./send_nsca -H dan.imsweb.com, I keep getting time outs, even if 
I increase from 10 to 60.  I think it's because I'm not actually sending any 
data.  Where/how  does the data get sent?
Shouldn't it be something like send_nsca -H dan.imsweb.com outgoing.file?
Ofcourse, I tried that, that doesn't work.
the check_load plugin provides me with the infor I want to send but the 
reality of what's below isn't working for me.  I've tried send_nsca -H 
dan.imsweb.com[tab]2[tab]3.00;3.00;3.00 for instance and that doesn't get 
sent.  or just a space where [tab] is and that doesn't work.
