Summary     : A new general purpose Nagios-plugin for retrieving data
Description :
check-mk is a general purpose Nagios-plugin for retrieving data. It adopts a
new approach for collecting data from operating systems and network components.
It obsoletes NRPE, check_by_ssh, NSClient, and check_snmp and it has many
benefits, the most important are a significant reduction of CPU usage on
the Nagios host and an automatic inventory of items to be checked on hosts.

Update Information:

- Install the mk-job binary on /usr/bin.
- Make sure the proper permissions are given to /var/lib/check_mk_agent/job to prevent any hard or symlink to be created by a normal user and pointing to any file on the filesystem exposing it on the check-mk-agent output being run as root.
