Also using Nag 1.2 here. For situations like this, rather than calling the
plugin directly, I use a wrapper script in which I check to see if the host
is one of the exceptions to the template. (For example, my stratum 2 NTP
"master" boxes aren't going to be locked on the same time source as the rest
of the network.) If you've got an exception, then either check for the
non-standard parameter with the plugin -- or just skip the plugin and return
a fat, dumb, happy 0 to keep Nag quiet.
