What is it that you want to check about the shared path? When you say the Nagios XI tool, are you referring to a specific tool? Can you send a screenshot?

If you have it mounted on Linux somewhere, you can use https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... ts/details

Based on the help menu you shared, this plugin requires you to provide a password (-p) if you are providing a username (-u). It looks as if you are only providing a username (administrator) which violates the plugin's usage. Try adding a password to your command definition with -p for the administrator user.
