+Nagios Plugin Requirements
+--------------------------
+
+Some plugins require that you have additional programs and/or
+libraries installed on your system before they can be used. Plugins
+that are dependent on other programs/libraries that are missing are
+usually not compiled. Requirements for various plugins are listed
+below...
+
+check_fping:
+ - Requires the fping utility distributed with SATAN. Either
+ download and install SATAN or grab the fping program from
+ http://www.stanford.edu/~schemers/docs/fping/fping.html

+ ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/contrib/libc6/RPMS/fping-2.2b1-1.i386.rpm
+ Note that the fping command must be setuid root to function.
+
+check_game:
