Check_http status 503 gives 200 OK

[Ryan Edwards]

You said u are using it like so:

   Check:
   /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I <ip address> -u http://<url> -w1
-c2

Maybe drop the IP address?  I dunno, maybe cuz you have both IP and the url
its causing problems. Maybe its replying on the IP, but not on the URL your
providing.  You prob only need one or the other if im not mistaken

Cheers!

Christianity: The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live
forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that
you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your
soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a
talking snake to eat from a magical tree.  Makes perfect sense!
