Yeah, I thought about that. I'd prefer not to have to do that. I think 
instead of messing around with getting it to work, I'll just write two 
quick scripts. One would dump the output from up2date into a file, the 
other would read that file and send the results back across NRPE.

Thanks for the suggestion!
