Is there a Nagios plugin that enables you to specify the referrer URL when checking a URL?

Question

I want to monitor site A that only accepts requests for a certain URL if the requests originate from site B. I know Wget has an option of downloading content protected by referrer like so

wget --referer=http://first_page http://second_page

Is there any Nagios plugin that would make this possible, or is check_http capable of this?

Answer 1

From the check_http man page:

-k, --header=STRING Any other tags to be sent in http header. Use multiple times for additional headers
