Johan-
Your option 1 and 2 both worked so I tried to figure out why. A diff on check_procs.c from 1.4 and 1.4.2 reveals this:
175,179c181,184
< temp_string = strtok ((char *)procprog, "/");
< while (temp_string) {
< strcpy(procprog, temp_string);
< temp_string = strtok (NULL, "/");
< }
---
> #ifdef HAVE_BASENAME
> temp_string = strdup(procprog);
> procprog = basename(temp_string);
> #endif /* HAVE_BASENAME */
It looks like the basename function is being used now, however, on the Solaris machine HAVE_BASENAME is not defined and the entire section is being skipped. I've grep'ed all the files in the plugins source but nowhere is that constant defined. I'm assuming it's being defined elsewhere on other OSes. Other than manually patching the old over the new, what do you all suggest?

I had a few troubles myself with this plugin on Solaris 8 machines.
Here is things that worked for me :
1) Try including the path of the process you are looking for in the command
line. Yes, I know that the help of this plugin tells you to ommit the path,
but it sometimes worked for me..
/opt/nagios-plugins-1.4.2/libexec/check_procs -c 1:1 -C /usr/sbin/syslogd
2) try the "-a" option instead of the "-C"
/opt/nagios-plugins-1.4.2/libexec/check_procs -c 1:1 -a /usr/sbin/syslogd
3) This plugins has troubles with some locales (like some european ones, where
you write "1.234,5" and not "1,234.5" ). I added a "LC_ALL=POSIX ; export
LC_ALL ;" in front of my checks (those are NRPE'd checks) to bypass the
problem.
