Summary: check_http: add CONNECT method

Initial Comment:
Add 'CONNECT' method to chek+http

Patch taken from http://nagios.frank4dd.com/howto/monitor-ssl-websites-through-proxy.htm and reworked slightly for nagios-plugins-1.4.15

The arguments will be

check_http_new  -I <proxy> -p <proxy-port> -u <check-url> -S(sl) -j CONNECT -H <webserver>

A suggested test would be

check_http_new -I <proxyname> -p <proxyport> -u https://www.verisign.com/ -S -j CONNECT -H www.verisign.com

This has been tested by one of our Opsview customers and works as expected

  Duncs
