check_snmp setup questions

I have just setup a check_snmp service in Nagios v2.9 to be able to
check a new temperature/humidity sensor in our data center.  I tested it
from the command line like this:

./check_snmp -H 192.168.0.16 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.6.0 -C
public -w 60 -c 71

And it works perfectly that way.  However, when I set it up in Nagios
it's not working.  Here's what I did.  I setup a check command
definition like this:

#check_snmp_POP_Temp command
define command{
        command_name    check_snmp
        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS -o $ARG1$ -C
$ARG2$ -w $ARG3$ -c $ARG4$


And in the host config file I have this:

     check_command
check_snmp!.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0!public!80!90

Nagios didn't complain about this during the preflight check, but when I
restarted it, I'm getting this:

check_snmp: Invalid warning threshold: %s

So obviously I've got something wrong in the setup.  Can someone help me
out?
