Can you post your commands.cfg file for us to take a look at?

[al_orange]

Where do I find commands.cfg?

[hsmith]

Depends on how you installed Nagios.

As for the check_load command, you do not have one defined. If you add back the segment of text that was missing, then you can use the check_local_load command defined.

Are you trying to check the load of a remote server?

[al_orange]

Yes, I am trying to check the load of a remote linux server. I might have not pasted the code properly (by accident), it was multiple pages.

[hsmith]

What is the output of a grep check_nrpe /path/to/commands.cfg command?

[al_orange]

So, if my errors mention check_load', 'check_users', and 'check_total_procs', then do I change that in the command.cfg file?
