Thats what I thought but it sure doesn't make sense. The hosts that 
triggered this are direct-jet printers, three different kinds with 
static IPs. I've had Nagios running for about a week and this morning 
was the first time I've seen this alert. Happened for about half hour 
and I've not seen the alert since...
