Hello, I am trying to monitor running services on my Windows servers. Here is what I have set up for my check command
$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -v $ARG1$ $ARG2% %ARG3$
ARG1=SERVICESTATE
ARG2=-d SHOWALL -l
AGR3=w3sqlstate.exe
I cna not get it to run. Any help would be much appreciated.

Do you have NSClient installed and properly configured on your target Windows machine?

Are the percent signs in your config or is this a typo on the forums?

As a general rule I always try to start with simple. Saves a lot of headaches
