send_nsca to monitor a remote log via passive checks.

[mariog at absi.be]

Hello 
I have a problem 
I am using a program logsurfer which scan logfiles and realtime

it is running on a remote host, i have created a passive check in nagios 
and I want to use send_nsca to send the errors in the logs to the 
monitoring server. whenever i launch send_nsca manually in the command 
line it works but  when I set it in the config file of logsurfer it does 
not sends any passive checks to the nagios server. 

here is the command i try to use in order to send it to the nagios server. 

"/usr/bin/echo "host\tlogfile\t2\t\"$0\"" | /etc/nagios/send_nsca -H 
123.123.123.123 -c /etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg" 

it is there an error in syntax, does anyone of you know logsurfer and it's 
maybe the logsurfer problem if the syntax of send_nsca is correct. 

$0 is supposed to be the entire line that will be sent to the monitoring 
server. 

thank you for your help; it will be priceless.
