[Bug 595528] Re: nt.cfg

[Scott Moser]

Hi, could you please explain a little more on what was wrong with:
# 'check_nt' command definition
define command {
   command_name    check_nt
   command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -v '$ARG1$'
}

The debian maintainer (Jan Wagner) had this to say:
 | Sorry, I looked into LP #595528. I can't reproduce the problem described
 | there. Defining more option in $ARG1$ works without trouble (since ages).
 | Anyways ... I'm looking the fix you are using:
 |   command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -v $ARG1$ -v $ARG2$
 |
 | This seems not to be the solution the reporter proposed and beside that,
 | what if you need more that 2 arguments? This solution doesn't scale that
 | much.  So from my point of view, this bug is invalide and even the actual
 | fix doesn't help much!

I'm going to merge sid version 1.4.15-5, and it seems that the right
thing to do is to drop this change that we made here, unless we fully
understand what it fixes.
