Summary: check_ircd - invalid argument

Initial Comment:
Any ideas what im doing wrong here

libexec]# ./check_ircd -v -H xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
MAIN(debug): hostname = something.host.name
MAIN(debug): binding to remote host: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -
> 6667 -> something.host.name
IRCD UNKNOWN: Could not connect socket (Invalid 
argument)

something.host.name and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx are valid 
hostnames and ips just edited out in this post

I get the same (IRCD UNKNOWN: Could not connect 
socket (Invalid argument)) as status when it is run by 
nagios.

 ./check_ircd -V
check_ircd (nagios-plugins 1.3.0-beta2) 1.3

This is when it is run in its unmodified form installed

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I'm having this problem in my testing as well (perl, v5.8.4
debian unstable). It seems to be something broken in perl's
socket code. It's mentioned here
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IoSocketInetInvalidArgument

The solution for me was to remove my computers hostname from
the /etc/hosts loopback

127.0.0.1       azul localhost
to
127.0.0.1       localhost

and poof it works... strange problem indeed!

I can't repeat this behaviour (ie invalid argument -H)
with check_ircd in the 1.4 alpha plugins release (check_ircd
(nagios-plugins 1.4.0alpha2) 1.3).

Would you retry with this release ?

(Unfortch I can't test the plugin function).
