Ok now that I got hold of the check_dns plugin now in my log files I
get the error

Jan  5 15:54:17 nagios-0 nagios: Warning: Return code of 126 for check
of service 'DNS' on host 'dns-0.rba.ispafrica.net' was out of bounds.
Make sure the plugin you're trying to run actually exists.
Jan  5 15:54:17 nagios-0 nagios: SERVICE ALERT:
dns-0.rba.ispafrica.net;DNS;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;(Return code of 126 is out
of bounds - plugin may be missing)

Thanks sofar
