how to escape special characters checking a windows service

[Jan Kuhn]

This works when running from the command line:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -p 1248 -v 
SERVICESTATE -l 'mssql$waspdb'
All services are running

But this doesn't in the servers.cfg  It adds the second $. 

check_command                   "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H 
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  -p 1248 -v SERVICESTATE -l 'mssql$waspdb'"

It adds the second $.

mssql$waspdb$: Unknown

I've got other services working correctly with embedded spaces.  Special 
characters are causing trouble.  I've tried escaping with \, all sort of 
quote combinations.
Any ideas?

thanks, jan
