[Nagiosplug-devel] Integer overflow when querying large counter values in check_nt

Hi all,

 

Currently I am facing the issue, that warning and critical level defined
as unsigned long:

 

unsigned long warning_value=0L;

unsigned long critical_value=0L;

 

With that, it is working within a range from 0 to  4.294.967.295. So if
you want to use check_nt to query e.g. the memory usage of a process (in
bytes), you can't specify anything else than 4GB max.

 

Could you please have a look at this and maybe put it to a float value?

 

Greets from Cologne,

and cheers for the great plugin,

Rene
