NRPE with command arguments

[Ludse Verhoeven]

I think that's fine. It all depends on what you want to pass to the 
command itself (in this case the 
/usr/locall.nagios/libexec/check_disk-plugin). If f.i. -w "$ARG1$" can use 
space-seperated values (which it can't, but just for arguments sake), then 
you have to specify (in nrpe.cfg) the (single- or) double-quotes.

Personally I tend not to use quoting in nrpe.cfg since in most cases it is 
not necessary, but there might be reasons to explicitly enclose such 
arguments in quotes.....

Met vriendelijke groet/with kind regards,

That worked fine :)
Other question, where exactly I've to insert quotes on nrpe.cfg commands 
to prevent code injection?
I think like this:
[nrpe.cfg]
[...]
command[check_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w "$ARG1$" -c "
$ARG2$"
[...]

Is it right?

Thank's!
