check_nc_net and WMICHECK

[Boyer, Timothy A.]

I'm having some issues trying to do WMI queries, and was hoping for some help from the list.

First of all, something simple.  Help on the check_nc_net says:

#     * - list all namespaces
#     namespace^* - list all classes in namespace
#     namespace^ full query statement - enter a full query statement as second parameter
#     namespace^*^class - list all instances in class

'List all classes in namespace' works fine.  'List all instances in class' doesn't:

# ./check_nc_net -H 192.168.0.2 -v WMICHECK -l "DEFAULT^*^StdRegProv"
Client - ERROR: Could not find result

# ./check_nc_net -H 192.168.0.2 -v WMICHECK -l "DEFAULT^*^RegistryEvent"
Client - ERROR: Could not find result

Same result no matter what class.

Second, I'm trying to do a WMI query.  Most work just fine,  but others - straight from the WQL examples - don't.  Specifically, I'm trying to look for a registry change, like so:

./check_nc_net -H 192.168.0.2 -v WMICHECK -l "CIMV2^SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Service' AND TargetInstance._Class = 'win32_TerminalService'"

and I get back

Client - ERROR: Exeption occured in check wmi:
Select: cimv2:SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Service' AND TargetInstance._Class = 'win32_TerminalService'::>Invalid query
+ exit 0


Am I missing something simple, or is this just not possible?

Thanks....
