# This script runs whatever command is printed on the command line
# Usage:
#   ./check_other -- someotherplugin --arguments-for-the-other-plugin
#
# Example:
#   ./check_other -- check_nrpe -H localhost
#
# If you want to provide options to check_other (for example to enforce a threshold:
# ./check_other --threshold=load1,warn=5..inf -- check_nrpe -H localhost check_load
