Bug Description

In the file /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/utils.pm , the default path to the rpcinfo command is specified as /usr/bin/rpcinfo . In more recent versions of Ubuntu (e.g. 12.04), the rpcinfo command has moved from /usr/bin/rpcinfo to /usr/sbin/rpcinfo . The default path in /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/utils.pm should be updated to reflect this change. Some commands, such as /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_rpc won't work unless this value is changed.

In /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/utils.pm
Replace this line:
$PATH_TO_RPCINFO = "/usr/bin/rpcinfo" ;
with
$PATH_TO_RPCINFO = "/usr/sbin/rpcinfo" ;
