Just one service is having some problems. I looked in the registry for the "real" name of the service. It's like "service$DB" When I now try to check this service, I get the following: nagios@nagios:~> /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H 10.2.30.190 -p 12489 -v SERVICESTATE -l "service$DB" service: Not found It looks like it cuts off everything behind the $. Anybody have an idea?
