Thanks, Ranjeet Hi Ranjeet Can you post your command string for this plugin and similarly the host/service that uses this command? I'm using exactly the same versions as you except it's on Fedora 5, and not had a problem (both local and remote commands.) Mine are as follows: Command definition: define command { command_name Check_PING command_line /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H $ARG1$ -p 10 -w 500,50% -c 1000,100% } In the host definitions: check_command Check_PING!$HOSTADDRESS$ Regards Andy.
