color=#0000ff size=4>Are these external commands only for 2 or do they apply for
1.2 as well? Also, can anybody point me to a list of all available external
commands because the list here <A
href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/extcommands.html">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/extcommands.html</A> is
definitely not all of them. I am using at least twenty or more in Naguios 1.2
that aren't listed here.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
