Ok, thanks. That answers my question. We can close this thread.

Using the symbolic link seems to work, but I'm not sure of that could create future issues after ncpa updates, for example.

And, the following approach would not be recommended, correct? # rm -rf /usr/local/ncpa/plugins/ # ln -sf /usr/local/nagios/libexec/ /usr/local/ncpa/plugins Thanks ...

For example, if a new logical disk is added on a Linux NCPA, I would like to do something similar to the f...

Hi, jomann . Good news to report.. Seems my issue is resolved by using "quoted_printable_decode" [1]: // Convert quoted-printable $email['body'] = quoted_printable_decode($email['body']); That works with the original xicore.inc.php, as well as the new xicore.inc.php. # diff xicore.inc.php....

Hi, lmiltchev . I installed the new xicore.inc.php file, but no luck. Here is a diff of the original xicore.inc.php vs the new xicore.inc.php: # diff xicore.inc.php.orig xicore.inc.php 552a553,555 > > // Replace all Windows line endings with Linux ones > $email['body'] = preg_replace("/[\\r\\n]...
