check_log v1.4.1 doesn't work with NRPE?

[Marc Powell]

You did only ask if anyone was aware of any bugs in check_log via NRPE
;) I personally am not.

Did you run your test as the user that NRPE is running as on the remote
machine? Can that user read /var/log/messages? That would be my guess as
to the problem.
