Package: nagios-plugins-basic
Version: 1.4.4-1
Severity: normal

When configuring a DHCP check using /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dhcp, I get 
this:

[1164854938] SERVICE ALERT: dc1;DHCP;UNKNOWN;SOFT;3;Error: Could not bind 
socket to interface eth0.  Check your privileges...
[1164854948] SERVICE ALERT: dc2;DHCP;UNKNOWN;SOFT;3;Error: Could not bind 
socket to interface eth0.  Check your privileges...

Based on this:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.plugins/2245

it looks like /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_dhcp should be suid root, but perms 
on install are -rwxr-xr-x.
