Package: nagios-plugins Version: 1.4-6 I'm using temperature information from mrtg for nagios to warn me when the server room gets too hot. I recently updated various packages and now the status now from the web front-end of nagios is 'UNKNOWN' with a value of 'ELF'.
I have just setup a minimal but up to date installation of sarge on a PC. I ran the check-mrtg program from the command line with a copy of the data file from the original computer: jwlinuxprototype:/tmp# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mrtg -F servertemp.log -v 1 -w 30 -c 40 ELF jwlinuxprototype:/tmp# head servertemp.log 1116437763 15 15 1116437763 15 15 15 15 1116437702 16 16 16 16 1116437700 16 16 19 19 1116437400 17 17 19 19 1116437100 16 16 19 19 1116436800 17 17 19 19 1116436500 16 16 19 19 1116436200 17 17 19 19 1116435900 16 16 19 19 Aplogies but I have not checked out the code. I've printed out some information below that may help.

It has the following features: . o Monitoring of network services (via TCP port, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP, PING, etc.) o Plugin interface to allow for user-developed service checks o Contact notifications when problems occur and get resolved (via email, pager, or user-defined method) o Ability to define event handlers to be run during service or host events (for proactive problem resolution) o Web output (current status, notifications, history, log file, etc.) . These plugins are used by nagios to perform the various service checks. jwlinuxprototype:/tmp# dpkg --list libc6 Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-===================-===================-============================ ========================== ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone data
