System call sent warnings to stderr

[Andreas Unterkircher]

Do you compiled the nagios-plugins your self or is it a RPM? If first, 
take a look into the config.h file
in the nagios-plugin source directory (after you have called the 
configure script).

Seach for PS_COMMAND and I guess you will find something like

#define PS_COMMAND "/bin/ps -axwo 'stat uid ppid vsz rss pcpu comm args'"

but "-" in front of the ps options is deprecated (ps outputs a warning 
on this, so you get the "system call
sent warnings to stderr" message). Remove the "-" and run make again. 
Then check_proc should work.

Cheers
Andreas
