Where do I use the --help switch? I've tried in the terminal but I get a command not found error.

This one is for Samba: <a href="http://www.samba.org">www.samba.org</a> And like Patrick said if you do a "check_http -h" it tells you what ik can do. And if you're on a common linux distro. you can find files with: "locate [filename]" Then I would also check: <a href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/beginners.html">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/beginners.html </a> <a href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/monitoring-publicservices.html">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/monitoring-publicservices.html</a> And I would take your time for all this. My linux experience is over 8 years and it took me three weeks to have a full blown secure sms sending Nagios setup. Goodluck!
