.SH DESCRIPTION
.B nagios-acknowledge

which it expects to find at /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd to acknowledge
a problem for a particular host or service.
.PP
The user's current login name will be used as the author field for the
acknowledgement, taking into account any use of
.I sudo(8)
changes. Note that the
.I COMMENT
parameter is optional.
.P

option if you actually want to do this.
