I am doing  a check which counts the number of process running on the
remote host.  Lets say for whatever reason nrpe could not establish
connection during the test.  In this situation, should it not go to
UNKNOWN state.  However I see its going to critical state.  Please
advise on this.  Thanks

[user]>./check_nrpe -H xxxxx -c check_process_x64 -a 0: 10: httpd
Connection refused by host
[user]>echo $?
2
