I have some Windows hosts where I need them to stay logged in and running various "things" - for software not written to run as a service. Easy enough, if explorer.exe is not running (along with the other processes I have service checks for, I get errors and notifications.

I need a check for the "OK" state to be if explorer.exe is not running and for the error state to be if explorer.exe IS running.

I have not heard about the option of "=stopped" , but if that works it's
a good way.
another way to manipulate the return output is to use the "nagate"
plugin ( should be in the libexec dir ) , and it will allow you to twick
the output submitted to nagios from the service execution .
