For each Windows hosts that i add to be monitored, I am getting a "unknown status" results and "check_nt: Could not parse arguments"
Can anyone explain?
Again I am new to Nagios configuration and I have looked over the instructions. I am using the sample config files.
Thanks in advance.

Can you post your objects.cache find, should be under /var some where.
Bzip2 is nice.

Don't forget to remove any sensitive data with a find replace.

Hi MMestinik.
I found the problem.
I had s- PASSWORD present in my command.cfg file.
I removed the -s mypasswordgoeshere and the problem was resolved.
# 'check_nt' command definition
define command{
command_name check_nt
command_line $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -s mypasswordgoeshere -v $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}
Thank for your help.
