Nagios Plugins using Net::SSH::Perl

[Scott Baker]

I wrote a script that uses Net::SSH::Perl to login to our router and
check some stats. When I run it as root the script works perfectly,
if I run it as the nagios user it runs fine. When nagios runs it I
get an error that /root/.ssh isn't writable which as the nagios user
it's not. For some reason running Net::SSH:Perl scripts under the
nagios user environment confuses the script into thinking it's
running as root.

Anyone else have this problem? Is there a known work around?
