This will not work as you expect. There must be plenty of samples in the
mailinglist archives to show you how it can done.

But to add one more to the archives:

define command{
        command_name    check_https_credentials
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -S -a $ARG1$
        }

define service{
        use                             waakhond.net-service
        host_name                       https_with_login-server
        service_description             HTTPS
        check_command
check_https_credentials!user:password
        contact_groups                  customers
        }

I always will advocate to add your own check_http like commands and use
them in your services.

Hugo.
