problem parsing the arguments containing "--"

nrpe has problem understanding the arguments containing "--".

EG:- ./check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDR$ -c "check_hardware" -a "--chassis --storage"

nrpe is unable to parse the arguments. Is there escape sequence needed for them ?

When executed individually , the script is running absolutely fine

What is the output when you run it this way? Two things you can try are escaping with back slashes like \-\- or replacing the double quotes with single quotes.

Anything else we can do for you regarding this, or is this one okay to lock up?

Glad to see this working. I'll close this thread out now, but feel free to open another if you ever need assistance.
