hi

i ran into one very interesting issue

whenever i do from nagios box

d# ./check_nrpe -H XX.XX.XX.XX -c check_procs -a rsync
PROCS OK: 1 process with args 'rsync'
/(!8@((c)Þ
d#

what with those extra characters??

on remote box in debug log i see following

Mar  8 16:58:02 box nrpe[61700]: Connection from XX.XX.XX.XX port 26050
Mar  8 16:58:02 box nrpe[61700]: Host address is in allowed_hosts

Mar  8 16:58:02 box nrpe[61700]: Connection from 64.237.55.82 closed.
