Hi scott,

Thanks for your reply.

I have configured some DNS server with DNS Query wizard.

We are facing error for some of the servers.

Error is like "Error: check_icmp failed"

I executed commands like "chmod u+s pluginfile"

But still we are facing issue. please help me.

Can you run the command from the command line as the nagios user, or using the Test command on the host in the CCM?
