Root_partition check not reading correctly

I checked that, and I had made that error, however when I fixed that
error, I still have a reading only from the nagios server rather than
the masterkey server

-------
In my spare time, I found "check_by_ssh and added that to the
commands.cfg and its's counterpart lines in my service definitions for
that server.  The error there is that the -H $HOSTNAME$ that is
suggested in "check_by_ssh" is wanting a FQDN or an IP address. It
says the hostname is invalid (and it is)
	
Remote Root Partition    UNKNOWN 	03-19-2012 14:58:39 	0d 0h 6m 51s
	3/3 	check_by_ssh: Invalid hostname/address - LTS-MASTERKEY-000
I changed $HOSTNAME$ to $HOSTADDRESS$ which gives me an access denied
error, so at least the system is believing in the HOSTADDRESS
	
Remote Root Partition   UNKNOWN 	03-19-2012 15:16:56 	0d 0h 27m 11s
	3/3 	Remote command execution failed: Permission denied, please try
again.

Running direct gets me a real answer:
# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -H 192.168.10.160
/nagios/check_diskfree.sh sda2 70 90
OK. Free Space: 24GB, 95%

What user is the thing expecting?
