The 'most recent plugins' is not informative. You could mean the most
recent released plugins, which was actually the netsaint plugins, or the
beta posted on sourceforge, or the current CVS, or its snapshot at
www.debisschop.net/src/nagios. Or probably other things not right at the
top of my head.

We take great pains to make it easy to report version. Just run the
plugin with the --version flag - easy, and unambiguous.

$ ./plugins/check_nwstat --version
check_nwstat (nagios-plugins 200211162300-snapshot) 1.3

Sounds like services.cfg or checkcomands.cfg has a typo somewhere, or
some parameter specification has changed in your configs without you
being aware of it.
