NSClient++ and CheckEventLog

[Michael Medin]

It has nothing to do with language...

The reason is that one of them has an entry which is "too long" so you 
need to update the buffer used when NSClinet++ reads the eventlog.
The simplest way to solve this is to increase the buffer_size variable 
to something "large enough".
If you check the wiki/forums on nsclient.org you can find some "values 
that worked for others" or you can play around and find what works for you.
