[Nagiosplug-devel] nsclient INSTANCES options

[Alessandro Ren]

    I dont know if nsclient++ support INSTANCES, but if opmonagent and 
NC_Net already do, it would be a safe bet to apply this patch to 
check_nt to be in the standard distribution.
    We get NC_Net, original nsclient and opmonagnet that support INSTANCES.
    Sop, let's patch it?
