can't get syntax to work for eventlog_new

[Mark Harris]

I am getting errors trying to check the event log on a Windows 2003 server from Nagios 3.2. I have downloaded the check_nc_net.c (April version) and performed the make and renamed it in the /usr/local/nagios/libexec directory and have installed the nc_net executable on the Windows server and it is running as a service. No matter what I try I get the error.

./check_nc_net -H cvgmgt200 -v EVENTLOG_NEW -l System^Error^0^any^6008,6000-9000^
Client - ERROR: Unknown request number

What am I missing? I am wanting to be able to select the event log list of a specific type, System in this instance  for a specific event id.

The problem looks like the windows Host Check_nt version is to old and does not support the extended commands.
check the clientversion using check_nt/check_nc_net this should report NC_NEt's version
the version should be on 5.x for Dot Net 3.5 or 4.x for Dot net 2.0

all responces that start with "Client - ERROR" are errors from the Windows Host side of NC_Net.
