[Nagios-user] Run plug-in test as Nagios user

Hi all,

My plug-in had an output problem, it always says :
"Return code of 9 is out of bonds"

I got a headache because when i tested the plug-in manually it worked and
gave me some nice output.
Then I surfed the web and found out that i have to change the ownership of
the plug-in and run the plug-in as a nagios user.
I did it and it worked! :-)

My question is why do we have to run the plug-in tests as Nagios user and
change the ownership of the plugin (and other related file to it) to the
nagios user?

Thanks before,
Adi Yesaya
