check_disk_smb: another nagios problem

There is something weird about check_disk_smb from nagios-plugins-1.4.3,1
on FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p10.

From the command line (pwd is /usr/local/libexec/nagios) the switches
work as expected:
# ./check_disk_smb -H 194.214.13.140 -s public -u guest -p ""
Domain=[MIAGE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.22]
Disk ok - 396M (79%) free on \\194.214.13.140\public

One has the same result without the switches:
./check_disk_smb 194.214.13.140 public guest ""
Domain=[MIAGE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.22]
Disk ok - 396M (79%) free on \\194.214.13.140\public

But the second form is the only way I can make it work within nagios

define command{
command_name    check_disk_smb
command_line    $USER1$/check_disk_smb $HOSTADDRESS$ public guest ""
}

If I introduce the switches (e.g like below) I have all sorts of errors
(invalid warning threshold, Access denied, etc ...) depending on
the order of the arguments.

define command{
command_name    check_disk_smb
command_line    $USER1$/check_disk_smb -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -s public -u 
guest -p ""
}

Is anybody else seeing this?
Have I done something wrong?

Regards,
Thierry.
