Hooray! Yes, it is a bit difficult to track nsclient releases, I'm glad that it was resolved in a 4.x version. Let us know if you need any further help with this!

Incase anybody digs this up in the future and has the same issues i did;

The fix ive already documented - do a clean install of NSC++ rather than an in place upgrade.

The following command is what works for my specific 'Disabled' check i wanted to do:

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 5666 -c CheckTaskSched -a "filter=status eq 'disabled' AND title = '$ARG1$'" "syntax=Task %title% is %status%" crit=\>0
If this helps just 1 person in the future not spend 3 days on it like i did then its post well worth it.

Thanks to those you provided suggestions and advice.
