The usage message is sent to stdout on purpose, because stdout *must* go to the Nagios console. Not so with stderr. But maybe it works meanwhile.?

Hi MadeInGermany,
Thanks for the information. I'm just used to writing utilities that work directly on BSD, Linux, and UNX platforms where we all know what is supposed to happen and users know how to separate diagnostics from normal output. I hate using things like Nagios that think that diagnostic messages should be hidden from users (making it hard or impossible for those users to find out what went wrong when underlying utilities report problems)

Oh, well.

Cheers,
Don
