Because the check_.* programs expect to be called in the path where all 
the plugins reside, usually /usr/local/nagios/libexec. The utils.pm file 
must be in that same directory - if it isn't, you should copy it there. 
If there isn't a utils.pm file, the plugins installation is probably broken.

The following is expressly _not_ run in the libexec directory - you 
cd'ed out of it yourself :-)
