I definitely haven't edited the file on a Windows machine, but I am using NagiosQL (http://www.nagiosql.org), and I'm certain I've used its built-in nagios.cfg editor. Running hexdump -C /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg, I can see that there are carriage return / line feeds (0D 0A) at the end of each line, which explains where the "\r" are coming from. So I would certainly consider that to be the real problem, and will be sure contact the NagiosQL folks. That said, I would still recommend the above change be rolled-in as a robustness enhancement when/if it is convenient. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

At least now I have a better handle on the problem and how to resolve (or at least work around) it, so thank you for pointing me in the right direction. It's so easy to jump to conclusions sometimes, but at least I learned a little more in the process! PS: For the record, the "pre-flight" check you mentioned completes without any complaints with regards to the configuration file, so I guess the nagios executable must parse the file differently than the init script (since NagiosQL lets me do it with a single click, I run that command every time I make a configuration change before I restart Nagios). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have tested it and it works.
