check_procs

[Aaron Mills]

A bit of color on the check_procs program:

I had the same problem, and it was a permissions issue. The pst3 binary has
to be setuid/owned by root:

-r-sr-xr-x   1 root     root       25064 Sep 29 16:15
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/pst3

HTH.

Bill,

Ok that makes sense.  The compiler is 32 bit.  This is the output I get is:

-bash-3.00# ./check_procs -vv
CMD: /export/home/bmunger/downloads/nagios/libexec/pst3
Unable to read output

I have since found a different solution on nagiosexchange.org called
check_procs2 which is a perl script.  This seems to work fine for me.

Thanks!

Brandon
